According to the app game Just Keep Swimming, the squid's name is Gary.'Why should the chicken get all the fun?'.This is also true of the giant squid in 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.

The squid's beak in the film is actually upside down in reality, the giant squid's beak has an underbite rather than an overbite.

If you look closely in the second shot after the squid is crushed, its tentacle (which is protruding from under the fallen crate) is moving, clearly showing that it is indeed still alive.

Due to its tentacles having hooks on its tentacles in addition to suckers, it could likely be a colossal squid ( Mesonychoteuthis hamiltoni).

In reality, giant squid prey on deep-sea fish and other types of squid (including other giant squid), not reef fish like in the film.

They also shine a bright gold or silver color when light hits them, as evidenced by Tsunemi Kubodera when he filmed one in 2013. In reality, giant squids, while able to change color like octopuses, are actually brick red (the red color helps hide them in dark water as it makes them harder to see) and can turn white.

The giant squid in Finding Dory is also a mixture of blacks and blues, likely to make it appear more alien and menacing.

They do, however, have the ability to change color using chromatophores, as all squid and octopuses do.

In truth, it is unknown if giant squids are even able to create bioluminescence as they do not have photophores (the light-producing organs many bioluminescent creatures have). The giant squid in Finding Dory is bioluminescent.In that scene, Hank hides inside the crate the giant squid is hiding at as Hank escapes from it. However, this may only be for the credits, and thus the squid's fate is unknown. The giant squid is later seen in the end credits, though only its eye is shown from inside the crate.

The squid grabs and nearly eats Nemo, but he, Marlin and Dory escape from being eaten by the giant sea predator when it becomes stuck in a sunken shipping crate during its pursuit of the trio thus, the squid is crushed when the crate falls on top of it. As Marlin begs for the squid to let them go, it chases Dory, Marlin, and Nemo around the wreckage. Dory finally sees the squid's eye and its fearsome beak inside the shadows of a sunken shipping crate. After accidentally landing from the California Current into the wreckage of a sunken container ship, crabs keep shushing Dory, Marlin, and Nemo as they swim along.
