Trivia
🎬The peculiar mechanical bird in 'Your Highness' was originally intended to be a CGI character. However, due to budget constraints and a suggestion from James Franco, a puppet was used instead, which was operated by three puppeteers in many of the film's key scenes.
💡The castle used in 'Your Highness' is actually the same location used in HBO's 'Game of Thrones'. Both productions filmed at Castle Ward in Northern Ireland, though 'Your Highness' used the location first, influencing some of the set choices in the early seasons of 'Game of Thrones'.
🎯During a scene in 'Your Highness' where a character is supposed to be hit by an arrow, the prop arrow accidentally struck a stuntman rather than the intended target dummy. The incident caused minor injuries but was kept in the final cut of the film, adding unexpected authenticity to the scene.
