Most Falcon films end with a teaser previewing his next case. The first time it accurately presaged the sequel's plot was for "The Falcon and the Co-eds."
The fourth of five Falcon films with Cliff Clark as Inspector Donovan and the seventh of eight with Edward Gargan as Detective Bates.
The seventh of sixteen movies for the suave detective nicknamed "The Falcon" released from 1941 to 1949, and the fourth of ten in which Tom Conway plays the title character.
Three actors from producer Val Lewton's film The Seventh Victim (1943) (Tom Conway, Jean Brooks, and Isabel Jewell) star in "The Falcon and the Co-eds". Both films are murder mysteries.
In the previous Falcon film, released only months earlier, both Jean Brooks and Amelita Ward played different romantic romantic interests for Tom Conway. RKO must have believed audiences had a short memory.
