One of the most interesting aspects of Black Bag is how much it depends on conversation, suspicion and psychological tension rather than conventional spy-movie action. Steven Soderbergh and writer David Koepp constructed the story around George and Kathryn’s marriage, making trust between two professional intelligence agents as important as the espionage investigation itself. Rotten Tomatoes describes the film as an espionage story built around the tension between George’s loyalty to his marriage and his country.
Another unusual behind-the-scenes detail involves Alicia Vikander, Michael Fassbender’s wife. IMDb notes that Vikander created a playlist that was used in the film, and she received a closing-credit acknowledgment under the name “DJ Vicarious.”
