Trivia

 * Regarding his role as Luke, Nicholas Galitzine told Tudum, "I felt compelled to immerse myself as much in the military culture as possible before taking on a role like this. I think there’s such specificity that is required to play such a character, so it was very much about understanding the process of creating a Marine — what basic training looked like, the intensity of it all, how they carry themselves, body language."
 * Luke's roommate is Frankie.
 * Luke's favorite memory is when he and his brother Jacob slept in sleeping bags on the floor during a thunderstorm.
 * The only pet Luke has ever had was a goldfish that he won at a state fair.
