Trivia:
This film is a spin-off of the movie The Fugitive (1993), which in turn was based on the television series of the same name, created by Roy Huggins.

In the scene where Sheridan (Wesley Snipes) escapes by swinging onto a moving train, stuntman Clay Donahue Fontenot performed the stunt as it is seen in the film - he swung from the building on a seventy foot long reinforced cable, and landed on the roof of a train station alongside a passing train. Because of the logistics of the scene, no safety net or airbag could be used, making it a one time only shot. It took ten weeks to plan the shot, and eight hours to set it up. It lasts for seven seconds in the film.
