- Fake American:
- Englishman Charles Dance plays the American head of Randy's law firm.
- Welshman Jonathan Pryce makes a surprise appearance as SCOTUS Chief Justice William Rehnquist.
- Canadian Ryan Reynolds as American of Austrian-Jewish descent Randy Schönberg.
- Fake Nationality:
- Englishwoman Helen Mirren as Austrian Jew Maria Altmann. Tatiana Maslany, who plays young Maria, is Canadian, but has Austrian ancestry.
- Spanish-German Daniel Brühl as Austrian Hubertus Czernin.
- Playing Against Type: This film came at the tail end of a slump in Ryan Reynolds' career when he'd been pigeonholed for seemingly playing the same sardonic character in every movie. This role reminded people that he could turn off that persona and play earnest drama as well.
