The Book Of Life Fun Facts

The director, Jorge R. Gutierrez, based Manolo's hometown of San Angel on actual Mexican towns and filled it with visual references to famous artists like Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo.
One of the main characters, La Muerte, originally had a more skeletal appearance but was redesigned to be more glamorous, inspired by Catrina, the iconic Day of the Dead figure.
