Inspired by the 2012 Paralympics in London, writer, producer, and director Matthew Vaughn wanted to have a character with a prosthetic leg, similar to the "Flex-Foot Cheetah" worn by paralympian sprinters. At one point, Oscar Pistorius was approached about playing the role of "Gazelle", and his representatives were asked if Pistorius could play a convincing killer. He later declined to take the role to focus on practicing for future sporting events. In February 2013, Pistorius was put on trial, and later sentenced for shooting and killing his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp. Also in this movie, Gazelle shoots someone through a door. Pistorius had shot Steenkamp through a door.
