Did you know?!Facts and trivia about The Book of Revelation (2006)
Can contain spoilers, watch the movie first.
- Tom Long, the film's lead, broke his ankle on set, forcing the final week of the seven-week shoot to be delayed by four months.
- Tom Long won the lead role of the dancer Daniel mainly on his dancing ability rather than his acting skill, and Greta Scacchi clinched Isabel partly because she had grown up dancing with her professional mother.
- Ana Kokkinos swapped the novel's Amsterdam setting for Melbourne's inner-city streets, using forty-two locations that shift between gentrified and sterile areas to mirror Daniel's trauma.
- Choreographer Meryl Tankard doubted Tom Long and Anna Torv would pass as credible dancers, but after three months of training with her the two actors eased her fears.
