  • Introduction to Video Content
  • The Fifth Element is a beloved movie directed by Luc Besson, and in this article, we will explore nine things you may not have known about it. The film is set in the future, and the costuming played a crucial role in creating its unique aesthetic. What many people don't realize is that the costumes were designed by Jean-Paul Gaultier, the same designer responsible for Madonna's famous cone bra. Gaultier and Besson actually met at a party for Madonna and Khan, which led to their collaboration on The Fifth Element. Another interesting tidbit is that before Chris Tucker was cast as Ruby Rod, the filmmakers considered Lenny Kravitz and even Prince for the role. The movie opens with scenes set in the Egyptian desert, but these scenes were actually shot in Mauritania, a country in northwestern Africa. Join us as we delve deeper into the intriguing details behind The Fifth Element!
  • Subtitles section
  • Lucy hits theaters next week, and we were going to make this week's episode, Things You Didn't Know About Scarlett Johansson's Tasty Hoots.
  • But for reasons I still don't understand, our legal team strongly discouraged that idea.
  • Instead, let's talk about a different movie from director Luc Besson that is beloved by a lot of you internetty types.
  • And we're not just doing five things because it would be catchy and make sense.
  • Here are nine things you didn't know about The Fifth Element, probably.
  • Since The Fifth Element takes place in the future and all that junk, the costuming was pretty important.
  • But most people don't know that the same guy who did the costumes for the film, creating looks like this and this, is the same guy who designed this.
  • That's right, Jean-Paul Gaultier, the guy responsible for Madonna's famous cone bra, also designed costumes for The Fifth Element.
  • He and Luc Besson actually met at a party for Madonna and Khan.
  • Next thing you know, Gaultier was whipping up designs for Mia Jovovich's Tasty Hoots.
  • Bazing.
  • Crazy costumes paired with Chris Tucker's performance are what really brought Ruby Rod to life.
  • What you may not know is before they settled on Tucker, the filmmakers considered Lenny Kravitz for the role.
  • I know, crazy, right?
  • But you want to know who else they considered?
  • Prince.
  • Yes, the purple one himself.
  • To be honest, Prince probably had something really close to these costumes already in his wardrobe, so they probably could have saved some money.
  • The first scenes of the movie, which are meant to be in the Egyptian desert, were really shot in Mauritania, a northwestern African country over by Morocco.
  • They were actually the first scenes shot for the film, and these boys were all locals.
  • But the scenes immediately after the exteriors, where we're inside the temple, were actually shot in England at Pinewood Studios, which means all the boys we see in the interior shots are different boys.
  • They were cast to match the Mauritanian locals from the exterior shots as much as possible.
  • The old let's recast and hope no one notices trick.
  • Classic Hollywood.
  • Am I right, Roseanne, Fresh Prince, Game of Thrones and True Blood?
  • Huh, am I right?
  • Yeah, I'm right.
  • The sequences with the Mondoshawans were some of the hardest to create in the entire film.
  • It took three months just to detail exactly how they should look.
  • Then, once the design was in place, they had to put out a casting call for actors who were six foot nine inches tall, since only the freakishly tall could fit the costumes.
  • Plus, it took three people 20 minutes to dress one Mondoshawan.
  • Getting a gig playing a Mondoshawan was no picnic either.
  • The costumes were extremely hot, and the actors had to have TV monitors inside just to kind of sort of see where they were going.
  • This scene where they marched down the corridor into the temple was a nightmare to shoot, with six crew members on walkies trying to keep the actors from walking into walls or falling over.
  • The placement of the Mondoshawans' robotic heads didn't let the actors see out at all.
  • Speaking of those robot heads, all of them were identical.
  • This made for easy swapping out of the ones that broke down during filming.
  • But the Mondoshawans do differ from one another in how many spikes they have on their shoulders.
  • More spikes means you're a higher ranking Mondoshawan.
  • Boom, bonus thing you didn't know, and it wasn't even about Tasty Hoots.
  • Pretty much anyone would agree that the Mondoshawans are up there and how iconic they are to the fifth element.
  • But there's nothing more iconic to the film than Lilu's hair.
  • Early on in filming, they were actually dyeing Jovovich's real hair the mandarin color.
  • But as the weeks went on, one too many dye jobs caused her hair to literally break.
  • So they made a Lilu wig which wound up at the Gaumont Museum in Paris afterwards.
  • I'm not sure where her orange suspender thong thingy ended up, but if any of you guys know, please leave a comment and directions.
  • And if you have them, schematics to the building.
  • Speaking of Lilu, let's talk about how Lilu speaks.
  • What's she saying?
  • Director Luc Besson actually created Lilu's language himself.
  • Mila Jovovich was tasked with memorizing it before reporting to set.
  • By the end, Besson and Jovovich were able to have full-on conversations in the language.
  • And they actually got married seven months after the film's premiere, even though Besson was already married to French actress Maywinne Lebesco, who plays the diva at the time of the filming.
  • Uh-huh, wonder what Besson and Jovovich might have been talking about in that secret Lilu language.
  • Probably doing it.
  • For our next thing, we've got an Easter egg.
  • When Corbin's alarm goes off in this scene, the date is March 18th.
  • March 18th is Luc Besson's birthday.
  • It's also his favorite day to cheat on his wife.
  • Kidding, totally kidding.
  • And the time on the alarm, 2 AM, is Luc Besson's favorite time of day to cheat on his wife.
  • Still, totally kidding.
  • According to legal, I'm kidding.
  • By the way, Bruce Willis' birthday is March 19th.
  • So, that's also kind of fun.
  • Moving right along to explosions.
  • In this explosion, the stuntmen's timing was just slightly off, and they ended up engulfed in flames.
  • You can actually see them vanish into the fire when you put the clip in slow motion.
  • Yikes.
  • But the good news is, they were all right in the end.
  • There were a couple other near misses on the Fifth Element set, though.
  • Take this other explosion.
  • It was one of the largest explosions ever filmed on a sound stage, and the fire got so out of control, it took 20 minutes to put it out, and the stage had to be evacuated.
  • Or this scene, where Leeloo bumps her head on the pot.
  • Mila Jovovich actually did really hit her head in that shot.
  • She says she was covered in bruises by the end of the film's shoot.
  • Head-to-toe bruises, rambling in a made-up language, and broken orange hair.
  • Yeah, it still totally hit it.
  • Last thing, to create the futuristic world in the Fifth Element, the visual effects team used a lot of models.
  • The Flowston Paradise model weighed 7,500 pounds and was the largest model ever built for a movie at the time.
  • And all of the exterior shots of New York here are a massive model built by Digital Domain.
  • The clocks you see in this shot are really just pocket watches.
  • And by the way, that's just a stunt double for Mila Jovovich jumping onto a bag in a studio.
  • Damn, I am really hooking you guys up with the bonus things you didn't know today.
  • That's it for this episode, but let us know in the comments below what you want to see on the next episode of Things You Didn't Know.
  • And if it's not totally stupid, we might think about doing it.
