  • The screenplay of The Last Challenge is widely and falsely reported to have been written by Albert Maltz, the blacklisted writer; the confusion arose from Maltz's use of the pseudonym John B. Sherry.
  • Glenn Ford made The Last Challenge with director Richard Thorpe, then starred in Day of the Evil Gun, directed by Thorpe's son Jerry. Peter Ford, in his biography of his father Glenn Ford, called it the only case in film history of a star making back-to-back films for a father and then his son.
