Such as the zero-gravity scene between Barry and Lucy was inspired by a real event that happened to the artist and filmmaker Doug Liman. In a previous interview, theEdge Of Tomorrowdirector disclosed,

“And Tom, for a joke, put the airplane into a parabolic arc, and I woke up as I was being slammed into the ceiling of this airplane. I was pinned up against the ceiling, which I did find funny. It hurt, but I found it funny.”
