* Richard Alexander helped to design his own costume, which included a leather chest plate painted gold.<ref name="Harmon1973" />
* Early film fan historians claimed that actor [[Lon Poff]], playing the first of Ming's two high priests, died shortly after production began and was replaced by Theodore Lorch.{{Citation needed|date=April 2019}} In fact, however, only Poff's character died, or rather was killed by Ming in an act of fury and replaced by Lorch's High Priest, but the scene was cut from the final print. Poff did not die until 1952.{{Citation needed|date=April 2019}}
