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:
“By the time a person has achieved years adequate for choosing a direction, the die is cast and the moment has long since passed which determined the future.”
—Zelda Fitzgerald (1900–1948)
“We cast a shadow on something wherever we stand.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
“All voting is a sort of gaming, like checkers or backgammon, with a slight moral tinge to it, a playing with right and wrong, with moral questions; and betting naturally accompanies it. The character of the voters is not staked. I cast my vote, perchance, as I think right; but I am not vitally concerned that right should prevail. I am willing to leave it to the majority.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
