- Fake Nationality:
- Raymond is Haitian; his actor, Isaach de Bankolé, is Ivorian-born.
- In the French dub, to keep up with Raymond's language barrier, de Bankolé was speaking in Yoruba, his native language.
- What Could Have Been: Jim Jarmusch stated in an interview that he wrote the role of Ghost Dog specifically for Forest Whitaker. If Whitaker hadn't taken the role, the film probably would not have been made.
- Written-In Infirmity: The ptosis Forest Whitaker has is explained in-story as the effect of the No-Holds-Barred Beatdown Ghost Dog received from the thugs right before Louie saved him.
