Kim Poirier had to temporarily stop hosting HypaSpace (2002) during January and February while filming her scenes for the movie so Jonathan Llyr took over hosting duties for her. She even hosted a special episode which was a behind-the-scenes look at the film.
Most of the movie was filmed at the University of Alberta. Luke Callahan's map, which he uses to mark the sites of alien attacks, is map of the University of Alberta campus.
The idea of a sequel was considered even before the original was released.
On the week of it's DVD release in Canada, Kim Poirier promoted the film on TV show HypaSpace (2002) (which she hosts) on the 5th March 2007 for it's daily episode and on the 10th/11th March 2007 for it's weekly episode. She referred to herself as the 'blonde' Kim Poirier as she dyed her hair brunette after she completed her scenes for the film.
