* [[Ability Over Appearance]]: Philip Pullman had something of a reaction like this when Nicole Kidman was cast as Mrs. Coulter in ''[[The Golden Compass]]''. The character has black hair in the books (Kidman being blonde) and Pullman said "I was wrong, she has to be blonde", Kidman having been his personal choice for the role.
* [[Executive Meddling]] - The director attempted a more faithful adaptation. The money men differed. See the main page for the result.
** Replacing the original voice of Iorek, a Shakespearean actor virtually unknown in Hollywood, with the instantly recognizable voice of Sir [[Ian McKellen]].
* [[Hey, ItsIt's That Voice!]] - The Japanese dubbed version has two dubbed versions, one for theaters and another for TV and DVD releases:
** Lyra Belacqua [[Rie Kugimiya|is]] [[Shakugan no Shana|Shana]], [[Toradora (Light Novel)!|Taiga Aisaka]] and [[Mobile Suit Gundam 00|Nena Trinity]] in the TV dub.
** Mrs. Coulter [[Atsuko Tanaka|is]] [[Ghost in Thethe Shell|Motoko Kusanagi]] and [[QueensQueen's Blade|Claudette]] in the TV dub, this is [[Hilarious in Hindsight|very funny at first sight]] since Lyla's TV VA also voiced [[QueensQueen's Blade|Melona]] who is Claudette's enemy and they get their roles inverted this time.
** Lord Asriel [[Hiroki Tochi|is]] [[Mobile Suit Gundam 00|Lasse Aion]] and [[Bokurano|Kokopelli]] in the theater dub.
** Billy Costa [[Junko Takeuchi|is]] [[Naruto|Naruto Uzumaki]] in the TV dub.
*** Where do I begin with the video game? [[Steve Blum]], [[Wendee Lee]], [[Jim Cummings]], [[Kath Soucie]]... Only Dakota Blue Richards and Freddie Highmore reprise their roles. Seriously, check out the [[IM DbIMDb]] [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1149870/fullcredits page].
** In Spain, Pan is the Spanish [[Arthur (Animationanimation)|Arthur]] and the Catalan [[Total Drama Island (Animation)|Beth]].
