Trivia

Had a six-week-long shoot. Of those six weeks, a water crew was available for four of them. When weather conditions were right, the cast and crew would drop everything on the land and go shoot the water scenes, even if that wasn't on the schedule for the day. When the conditions were poor, they would go out and shoot stuff with stunt doubles just in case - like underwater paddling shots and waves breaking.
