The desert scenes where the majority of the locations were shot appear to be hot and arid, when in fact filming was done in mid and late March when it was still winter and the temperate during the day seldom rose above 60 F degrees in the sun, with wind chills making the outdoor temperature even lower. The cast, including the three female leads, spent most of the time between takes literally shivering under heavy winter coats that the wardrobe department brought along for just that.
This film stars, amongst others, Lucy Lawless, Renée O'Connor, Kevin Sorbo and Michael Hurst - the principal actors starring in Xena: Warrior Princess (1995) and Hercules: The Legendary Journeys (1995).
