Trivia:
Gang members kidnapped Key hair stylist Aldo Signoretti and held him for $300 ransom which director Baz Luhrmann paid.

When Leonardo DiCaprio does Romeo's speech at Juliet's bier, it moved Claire Danes to tears, nearly ruining the scene. The moment the director yelled "cut," Danes smacked DiCaprio on the arm and said, "Don't make me cry. I'm supposed to be comatose, here!"

Claire Danes wore a wig throughout the film and also had a special aquatic wig for her underwater scenes.
