FUN FACT: The film crew personally reached out to Southport Mayor Joe Pat Hatem to present a special gift to supporting star Mel Gibson. Hatem agreed and during an impromptu ceremony, presented the actor with the keys to the city, declaring December 16th, 2023, as "Mel Gibson Day." Hatem later explained he did this to express thanks to Gibson for causing production of the film to begin with his involvement which employed hundreds of Southport residents. Caught completely off-guard, Gibson humbly accepted the gift saying, "I didn't know this was coming. I'm cringing actually. The key to the city... does it open the bank?"
