The Green Mile/Trivia

Writing by the Seat of Your Pants: At the time the first installment was released to the public, King hadn't even figured out the ending yet... but still a set release scheduled for it.

The Danza: Averted; Harry Dean Stanton was in the movie but played neither Harry Terwilliger nor Dean Stanton.
Dawson Casting: The actor who played Percy, who is supposed to be 21, was 39 at the time. Also, Wild Bill was 19 in the novel, and was played by a 31 year old in the movie.
Hey, It's That Guy!:
- Barry Pepper and David Morse as Dean Stanton and Brutus Howell.
- Mr. Noodle as Delacroix; Zaphod Beeblebrox as William Wharton.
- Don't forget Eugene Victor Tooms as Percy!
  - Percy left the insane asylum, and found his redemption on the Island by leading the Dharma Initiative.
- Harry Terwilliger and the father of the two dead girls are a D.A. and Heywood, respectively (Heywood, aka William Sadler, is considered by Frank Darabont a 'good luck charm').
- How ironic-- Andrei Chikatilo thinks that the testimony of the rape and murder of the two girls would "make your blood curdle".
- Man, Tritter really is Brutal!
- Sam Bell is Wild Bill?! Guess he didn't take that whole 'return vehicle' thing well...
- What about the conversation in the movie between Lieutenant Dan and Forrest Gump?
Scully Box: To make 6'5" Michael Clarke Duncan taller. Specifically, to tower over David Morse (Brutal, 6'4") and James Cromwell (Warden Moores); at 6'7", Cromwell is one of the tallest actors in Hollywood, but you wouldn't know it from this movie.
Throw It In: As Del is getting ready to be electrocuted, he recites to himself the Hail Mary prayer in Cajun French; Michael Jeter ad-libbed this.
