FILM TRIVIA:

> ‘Passenger 57’ was made in the middle of some of Wesley Snipes’ biggest box office successes. Immediately produced after hits such as ‘New Jack City’ and ‘White Men Can’t Jump’ and made prior to ‘Rising Sun’ and ‘Demolition Man’. The latter became Snipes’ biggest success.

>A film that deals with terrorist attacks on airplanes is always bound to be a sensitive subject today, but the film not only inspired later hits such as ‘Air Force One’, but also was cancelled on American television on September 11th 2001, one day that it was originally supposed to air.
