  • Harrison Ford was not originally cast for the role of Dr. Kimble. Instead, a number of actors were auditioned for the part, including Alec Baldwin, Nick Nolte, Kevin Costner, and Michael Douglas. Nolte in particular felt he was too old for the role despite only being a year older than Ford. Although the role of Gerard went to Tommy Lee Jones, Gene Hackman and Jon Voight were both considered for the role. The character of Dr. Nichols was recast for Jeroen Krabbé after the original actor who landed the role, Richard Jordan, fell ill with a brain tumour. Jordan subsequently died three weeks after the film's release

    This is amazing. They actually filmed a full size and scale train wreck all in real time without any mistakes. That makes it one of the best and most realistic action scenes in cinematic history.

      Actually the train crash was a complete failure and they had to make a mini scale, but Warner Bros. told every actor to never speak of it. It's in RUclips and it's titled The making of a Fugitive was a Sh#t show. Check it out. That's exactly the title with the tic tac toe in shit. It starts at 9:58

    I was lucky enough to see this movie in theaters. It’s classic Harrison ford. This is what I miss. This is why I watch old movies from the 80’s-90’s original stories that the people really cared about making. Don’t get me wrong cgi stuff is cool and can look good, but these films can never be duplicated. Plus today holly wood is scared to try original ideas most the time. The want a for sure Jack pot. When these guys made this movie they didn’t know if it was gonna be a flop or not. Anyways great flick

    Just listened to The Rewatchables where they discuss this movie, and I disagree with Bill Simmons. The fact that it was real and not special effects makes it better. Whenever I see CGI, I think, "This looks fake. I wonder what it would look like if this were real." And this was real! I'd love to see some unused footage.

      It's a quasi-mock up slug, if you will. Dunno why the railroad would be storing its logs(which I'm also not sure why they would own considering they use diesel locomotives) on board its motive power, but that's just me. That being said, I've loved this scene
      since I was a kid and still do.

      @@dan_hitchman007 Not a blue screen, it was Introvision, a sophisticated version of front projection. Blue screen would have struggled to make a clean composite with motion blur, dust and smoke. Harrison is just running away from a movie screen projecting the derailing train. The real trick is that when Harrison jumps down, they had some charges on the set to blow the dirt up and make it look like the train bursting over the edge. That's what sells that it's all one shot.

      It's actually realistic because way back before trains actually had emergency brakes when the engineer throw the train into emergency it just locked up the wheels and slide along that's why you see the sparks.

    Bus rolls down the hill vertically and magically is horizontal on the tracks.😝
    Second locomotive just comes off the rail for no reason.
    And the whole train magically is off the tracks with main rail system intact to cause it to do such a thing.
