Drake was supposed to play the Drake Look-a-like during the party scene. He demanded a private jet to fly him out to the set, which would have cost more than the entire production budget.

During Angel's introduction, London says he created a fashion line called "No Safety". In real life, No Safety is a yet-to-be-released clothing line started by Colson Baker (a.k.a Machine Gun Kelly) and Mod Sun. It first appeared in their previous movie collaboration, Downfalls High (2021).
At one point, the team was smoking so much that they set off the fire alarm in the house they were shooting in, triggering sprinklers that soaked the camera equipment. Mod Sun added there was so much weed that "people got in trouble, the production almost got shut down multiple times because of that. They were very like, 'We're not smoking no fake weed on here.'" That attitude also carried over to the premiere, with Machine Gun Kelly lighting up a joint while posing on the red carpet.
