Production

Jackson, who based his character on a childhood friend who died of cancer, lost up to 54 pounds in order to accurately portray his emaciated character, dropping from "214 pounds to 160 in nine weeks after liquid dieting and running on a treadmill three hours a day".

The film was produced under the same title as Chinua Achebe's 1958 postcolonial novel Things Fall Apart. After being contacted by Achebe's legal team, Jackson offered $1 million to keep the title Things Fall Apart for the film. Achebe took this as an insult. The foundation that manages Achebe's copyrights stated, "The novel with the said title was initially produced in 1958.
