The mobile phones the angels use are the Nokia 8260
The Thin Man doesn't say a word throughout the entire film.
When shown as an in-flight movie airlines remove the opening scene of the angels retrieving a bomb from a 747, opening the emergency door, and parachuting out.
Cameo: [Cheung-Yan Yuen] The film's martial arts choreographer and trainer appears as a fellow passenger on the plane in first class at the start of the film. He can be seen speaking in Cantonese to two pretty women, teaching them to say "thank you".
Lucy Liu replaced Thandie Newton in this film.
Lucy Liu was originally cast as a villain; she was later promoted to Angel.
Milla Jovovich, Alyssa Milano and Julia Roberts were among the many actresses who were forerunners for the parts of Natalie, Dylan and Alex.
Jordan Ladd was asked to audition for the part of an angel but declined.
Although the "bad guys" use guns in the film, the Angels do not. Drew Barrymore insisted that the Angels be able to do all their fighting without firearms.
The Thin Man, played by Crispin Glover, originally had a speaking role, but Glover didn't like the lines, so he asked for them to be removed. The director and producer agreed to make it a non-speaking role to give the character a more mysterious feel.
Drew Barrymore bought the screen rights to "Charlie's Angels" (1976) prior to the movie being filmed - a decision that earned her an estimated 40 million dollars for the first film and a possible 80 million for the second.
When Barrymore falls outside the kid's house, the two kids are playing Squaresoft's Final Fantasy VIII (it's not a two-player game, but they might not actually both be playing - that's why this hasn't appeared in the goofs list).
The original cast of "Charlie's Angels" (1976) - Jaclyn Smith, Kate Jackson and Farrah Fawcett - were invited to make cameo appearances, but declined. Reportedly, Fawcett said she'd only do it if she were allowed to be the voice of Charlie, and Jackson inisited on playing the villainous role that eventually went to Kelly Lynch. Ultimately, John Forsythe and Jaclyn Smith did appear in the sequel, Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle (2003)). Smith's role was uncredited, however.
The girls trained with their martial arts master for three months, eight hours a day.
Jenny McCarthy auditioned for the role of Natalie.
