Trivia
The scene when the tsunami impacts the hotel was recorded only once. It would cost too much to rebuild the set to shoot it again.
'The Impossible' was one of the last films produced in the Alicante studio 'City of Light' which soon had to close because of the low number of films they produced.
Took a year to completely finished the sequence of 10 minutes when the wave hits the hotel in Khao Lak.
