• François Civil won the lead in The Three Musketeers: D'Artagnan by turning up to a 2020 meeting with producer Dimitri Rassam in a D'Artagnan haircut and ponytail, claiming the novel was his bedside book, though he had bought the audiobook two days earlier and listened to it at 3x speed.
• François Civil was left temporarily blind in one eye for 36 hours by an incorrectly applied make-up product on set, and broke his foot falling from a stepladder at home, so he shot the final scenes of The Three Musketeers: D'Artagnan wearing a huge foam shoe that never appears on screen.
