1: Kirk Douglas as Spartacus in Spartacus. Kirk Douglas had an unhappy time for most of the production. After a major falling out with original director Anthony Mann, he asked Stanley Kubrick, with whom he had collaborated well three years previously on Paths of Glory (1957), to direct. However, he had an equally difficult time working with Kubrick, as the men had frequent clashes about many artistic choices. The disagreements got so bad that both men reportedly went into therapy together. After the production, Douglas claimed he would not collaborate with Kubrick again if he was given the opportunity. Douglas has often said he regretted having Mann fired from the movie, and when he was offered The Heroes of Telemark (1965), he agreed to take that role, on condition that Mann be hired as director.
2: Kirk Douglas as Lomax in The War Wagon. Kirk Douglas was one of the few people in Hollywood who did not refer to John Wayne as "Duke", citing his dislike of nicknames. Curiously, Yakima Canutt, an expert stuntman and second unit director and one of Wayne's oldest friends in the business, also called him "John" in most print interviews.
3: Kirk Douglas as Cactus Jack in The Villain. The name of "Cactus" Jack's horse was the same as the horse Kirk Douglas used in Lonely Are the Brave (1962), "Whiskey".
