20 Things You Somehow Missed In Collateral

20. Collateral Had A Very Different Title In Its Early Stages Of Development

It is no surprise that film titles change from their earliest stages of development to deep in production, and Collateral was no different.

The movie's analysis by Esquire mentioned that the project was called The Last Domino before it was passed around to different filmmakers (such as Frank Darabont, who had planned on making it into a modestly-budgeted HBO flick).

Ultimately, once Michael Mann and scriptwriter Stuart Beattie got together, the picture got its current title. It is safe to say that Collateral was the better choice, as the Last Domino is not quite as gripping and relevant a title as what we got.
