* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
** Creator/ChristianBale was originally scheduled to play Enzo Ferrari, but had to exit the film after the timeframe given to him to make one of his trademark weight gains for the role was too short. (Ironically, this was in 2016, while the film ultimately wouldn't be shot until 2022 and released in 2023.) After Bale left, Creator/HughJackman entered negotiations to play Ferrari in 2017, and stuck around until 2022, when Creator/AdamDriver was announced to portray Ferrari.
** When Hugh Jackman was considered to play Enzo Ferrari, Creator/NoomiRapace was considered to play his wife Laura.
