* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: The large supporting cast of the remake, combined with a number of cameos, creates a veritable smorgasbord of well-known and respected character actors, including [[Deliverance|Jon]] [[Midnight Cowboy|Voight]], [[Casino Royale|Jeffrey Wright]], [[The Hurt Locker|Anthony Mackie]], [[Al Franken]], [[Up in the Air|Vera Farmiga]], [[Blue Velvet|Dean Stockwell]], [[Monk|Ted]] [[The Silence of the Lambs|Levine]], [[Crossing Jordan|Miguel Ferrer]], [[Downfall (film)|Bruno Ganz]], and [[Sidney Lumet]]. Even co-star [[Salt|Liev Schrieber]] arguably falls into this trope. |
