Streets Of Fire Trivia

1. This film was intended to be the first in a trilogy of action films starring Michael Paré as Tom Cody. However, its failure at the box office put an end to the project. Despite this, Paré and Deborah Van Valkenburgh reprised their roles as Cody and Reva in "Road to Hell" (2008), which is considered an unofficial sequel to the film.
2. The Attackers, the fictional band in the movie, were portrayed by the real-life band members of Face to Face. They played primarily "new wave" music around the Boston area and split up in 1988.
3. Director Walter Hill was so impressed with Diane Lane's performance in the film that he wrote additional scenes for her during the shoot.
4. The film's origins came from Walter Hill's desire to make a film that included elements he loved when he was a teenager, such as custom cars, kissing in the rain, neon, trains in the night, high-speed pursuits, rock stars, motorcycles, jokes in tough situations, leather jackets, and questions of honor.
5. Amy Madigan originally read for the role of Cody's sister but expressed interest in playing the role of McCoy, which was originally written for an overweight male character. The part was rewritten for her.

11. The film's title, "Streets of Fire," was inspired by a song written and recorded by Bruce Springsteen on his album "Darkness on the Edge of Town." Originally, the plan was to have Springsteen's song on the film's soundtrack, but he withdrew permission after learning it would be re-recorded by other vocalists.
