    • Trivia
      On the first day of the shoot, Ali Saam was called in by Downtown Los Angeles security while shooting the scene of him walking to the bank despite the fact that he was sitting a few feet from the film crew. He stayed in character and did not mention that he is an actor in full makeup and wardrobe. Saman Yaghmai-Aledavoud notified the security that Ali is an actor.
