Did You Know?

Edit
Trivia Chuck Roberson (John Wayne's longtime stuntman) was meant to double for Jim Brown on some of the riskier stunts, with director Tom Gries planning to put black-face on him. Burt Reynolds would not perform with him, deeming it improper, and stated "Those days are gone, you better get a black stuntman here right now." When the production manager stated it was not in the budget, and "Fox would never go for it," Reynolds paid $500 out of his own pocket to pay for a black stuntman. See more »
