THE BACK OF THE BOX
WHAT THE STUDIO WANTS YOU TO KNOW

    Vincent (Tom Cruise) is a cool, calculating contract killer at the top of his game. Max (Jamie Foxx) is a cabbie with big dreams and little to show for it. Now, Max has to transport Vincent on his next job - one night, five stops, five hits and a getaway. And after this fateful night, neither man will ever be the same again. Tonight everything is changing...
    "No crime film in years boasts a cooler vibe than Michael Mann's dazzling Collateral. Mann hits a new peak... Cruise takes his game to a whole new level. Foxx fires up the screen with the power and subtlety of a born star." - Peter Travers Rolling Stone

THE GEEK BOX
TRIVIA TO IMPRESS YOUR EASILY IMPRESSED FRIENDS

• The role of Vincent was not originally offered to Tom Cruise, it was first offered to Edward Norton, Russell Crowe, and Collin Farrell.
• Jamie Foxx was not initially cast as Max either, Adam Sandler was offered the role and even met with Michael Mann before Jamie Foxx was decided on.
• Even Mark Ruffalo was not originally cast as Detective Fanning, that role was offered to Val Kilmer who had to drop the role due to scheduling conflicts with Alexander.
• Michael Mann was not even the first choice to direct this movie, the reigns were offered to Martin Scorsese, Spike Lee, and Steven Spielberg.
• A draft of this script was penned by Shawshank Redemption writer Frank Darabont, before it was decided to use Stuart Beattie's version.
• The full name of Tom Cruise's character is Vincent Collateral, and the original name of this film was Mr. Collateral, however producers of the film thought was a stupid name, so he had all the lines in the movie where Vincent's full name is said cut and changed the name to just Collateral.
• Michael Mann made Tom Cruise deliver UPS packages to crowded buildings without letting people recognize him. The goal was to help him understand his character and how he remains inconspicuous and can move in and out of places without being seen.
• Stuart Beattie's script took place in New York, but Michael Mann moved the movie to LA. Beattie had asked that Robert De Niro be cast in Jamie Foxx's role, because he wanted De Niro to play a cabbie that was the opposite of his role in Taxi Driver. The producers turned him down saying they needed someone younger.
