• Movie Goof (anachronisms): The coins the Illusionist gives the poor children each have a ring surrounding a differently colored disc. The technology to make those coins is only a few decades old. They're Czech 50 heller coins, introduced in 1993.
• Movie Goof (miscellaneous): Choreographer Marleen Pennison, Movement Coach for the film, is incorrectly credited as "Maureen Pennison".
• So that the crew would not have to use CGI to "fake" the magical illusions seen in the movie, Norton received intensive training in sleight of hand and other stage magic techniques from British magician James Freedman (III) and American magician Ricky Jay.
• Movie Goof (audio/visual unsynchronized): When Inspector Uhl finds Leopold to tell him of Sophie and Eisenheim's relationship, Leopold asks "What where they doing? Touching? Kissing? Fornicating?" His face is only shown when he says "fornicating", but he mouths a completely different word. (see Trivia)
