Jack Black played one of the "Wasteland Scraps" in the underground scene, who flinches when Spartan shoves the gun out of his face and says "And Cocteau's an asshole!" Rob Schneider played Erwin, one of the operators in the San Angeles Police control room; he would also play opposite Stallone in the 1995 movie Judge Dredd.

Sandra Bullock replaced original actress Lori Petty in the role of Lenina Huxley after a few days filming. Her character's name is a reference to Aldous Huxley, the author of Brave New World, and Lenina Crowne, a character in Brave New World.

Originally Jean-Claude Van Damme and Steven Seagal were offered lead roles in the movie. The role of Simon Phoenix was also offered to Jackie Chan.

In a cut out scene John Spartan fights the member of Simon Phoenix's gang played by Jesse "The Body" Ventura at the cryo-prison before one final battle with Simon Phoenix.

Famous quotes containing the word cast:

    He cast off his friends as a huntsman his pack,
    For he knew when he pleas’d he could whistle them back.

    Next, when I cast mine eyes and see
    That brave vibration each way free,
    O how that glittering taketh me!
    Robert Herrick (1591–1674)

    All deep, earnest thinking is but the intrepid effort of the soul to keep the open independence of her sea; while the wildest winds of heaven and earth conspire to cast her on the treacherous, slavish shore.
