- TriviaWhen it won the award for Best Picture, Musical or Comedy at the 2025 Golden Globes ceremony, director Luca Guadagnino, whose film Challengers (2024) was also in contention, walked out of the room.
- GoofsEmilia Pérez, despite the fact that she's supposed to be a Mexican cartel leader, speaks with a Spaniard accent rather than a Mexican one, pre-transition and post. In fact, none of the Mexican characters in the film actually speak with a Mexican accent nor do they share identical accents. In real life, despite numerous South American countries speaking the same Spanish language, they still have different accents and lexicons for their own spoken Spanish. A Cuban speaker for example will not sound similar to a Puerto Rican speaker.
