- Originally casted leads were Miles Teller and Emma Watson
- Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone sang and danced their roles
- Gosling learned to play the piano for the role
- John Legend learned to play the guitar for the role
- This is the third movie with Stone and Gosling together
- This is also the third movie with Justin Hurwitz and Damien Chazelle
- Hurwitz and Chazelle were college roommates at Harvard
- Filmed in CinemaScope (2.55:1)
- Chazelle attempted to do every shot in one take
- The title has a double meaning implying Los Angeles and the dreamworld the characters live in
