Cast
- Sean Patrick Flanery as Connor McManus, one-half of the MacManus brothers. He has a tattoo on his left hand that reads "Veritas" ("truth" in Latin). He is more sensible and rational than his brother, and often tries to carefully plan out their missions. However, he usually and foolishly bases his plans off plans used by classic action movies; Connor frequently references John Wayne, Clint Eastwood, and Charles Bronson.
- Norman Reedus as Murphy McManus, the other half of the MacManus brothers. He has a tattoo on his right hand that reads "Aequitas" ("justice" in Latin). He seems to be the more emotional and hot-headed of the two. However, Murphy is usually shown to be exasperated by Connor's second hand cliche movie plans.
- Willem Dafoe as FBI Special Agent Paul Smecker, a homosexual and incredibly brilliant but emotionally troubled FBI agent assigned to the gang murders linked to the McManus brothers. He also begins to sympathize with the McManus work and chooses to help them.
- David Della Rocco as Rocco "The Funny Man", a former henchman of the Yakavetta clan until Papa Joe set him up to be killed, and a loyal friend of the McManus brothers.
- Billy Connolly as Noah McManus/Il Duce ("The Duke"), father of Connor and Murphy who is released from prison by Yakavetta to confront the brothers and Rocco.

Famous quotes containing the word cast:
“Sometimes, because of its immediacy, television produces a kind of electronic parable. Berlin, for instance, on the day the Wall was opened. Rostropovich was playing his cello by the Wall that no longer cast a shadow, and a million East Berliners were thronging to the West to shop with an allowance given them by West German banks! At that moment the whole world saw how materialism had lost its awesome historic power and become a shopping list.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
“Why need Christians be still intolerant and superstitious? The simple-minded sailors were unwilling to cast overboard Jonah at his own request.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
““The tree of knowledge is not the tree of life!” And yet can we cast out of our spirits all the good or evil poured into them by so many learned generations? Ignorance cannot be learned.”
—Gérard De Nerval (1808–1855)
