* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: Bernie is played by Albert Brooks, who did voice work as Nemo's father in ''[[Finding Nemo]]''. He's also a regular contributor for ''[[The Simpsons]]'', providing the voice for Hank Scorpio.
* [[Playing Against Type]]: Comedic actor [[Albert Brooks]] playing the mobster Bernie, though Bernie's [[Affably Evil|actual personality]] is pretty close to Brooks' typical performance.
* [[The Red Stapler]]: Driver's silk scorpion jacket has become available (although it seems [http://imgur.com/gallery/kmoyI no one] can quite pull it off as well as Ryan Gosling).
* [[Stunt Casting]]: [[Christina Hendricks]] as Blanche.
* [[What Could Have Been]]:
** The film was originally planned as a big budgeted blockbuster star vehicle for [[Hugh Jackman]] directed by [[The Descent (Filmfilm)|Neil Marshall]] before both abandoned the project.
** Christina Hendricks wasn't the first choice for Blanche. Refn had originally sought to cast porn actresses to give the part a bit of [[Reality Subtext]] but couldn't find any with good enough acting skills and cast Hendricks in the part when his wife suggested her. Although hints of the intended [[Reality Subtext]] can be found in other parts in the movie; porn actress Andy San Dimas plays one of the strippers in Cook's lap-dance club.
** Irene was written as a Hispanic character (in the source novel, her name was "Irina").
