Gyllenhaal lost 20 pounds for the film. This is not the director's request and his own opinion. In his eyes, Lou is like a "hungry coyote", so he must be thin.
-
In the scene where Jack Gyllenhaal talks to himself in the mirror, he gets too deep into the scene. He smashes the mirror with his hand, and this scene is not in the script. The injured Gyllenhaal was sent to the hospital for a few stitches and immediately returned to the set.
-
Lou in the film rarely or almost never blinks. In fact, Gyllenhaal had used this method before when he starred in the protagonist of "Death Illusion."
-
In order to play Lou's assistant Rick, actor Riz Ahmed once haunted with the real "Nightcrawler" to find the feeling of acting.
-
Jack Gyllenhaal memorized the lines of the entire movie, and he performed it as a stage play.
-
The background music in the film can be regarded as the music Lou imagined in his mind in every scene.
-
This film is the directorial debut of Dan Gilroy. And Renee Russell, who plays the heroine Nina, is his wife.
-
The film was shot on Laurel Valley Avenue in the San Fernando Valley, a few blocks away from the location of the famous "North Hollywood Shooting."
-
Although Lou claimed that he had a physical relationship with Nina, the two people in the film did not even kiss once, not to mention the intimate scenes. This may have a lot to do with Nina's actor being the director's wife.

Too funny to provoke Jake Gyllenhaal in Los Angeles in the Night of the Zombie Bridegroom. so sick-wow-so ridiculously creepy-much cult- unexpectedly particularly inspirational. In the end, the whole person was lost in Jake's round eyes. I had completely forgotten what he looked like before. The two brothers and sisters are so heart-stirring. I don't want to go to LA again in my life, clam, clam, bye

Rick: Slow down, man.
[Lou speeds up]
Rick: That's too fast.

Lou Bloom: You see, Rick, they've done studies, and they found that in any system that relies on cooperation, from a school of fish or say even a professional hockey team for example, these experts have identified communication as the number one single key to success.
