Bill Nighy (Johnny Worricker) can be seen to handle objects and shake hands with just his thumb, index and middle fingers. This unusual grip is because he suffers from Dupuytren's contracture, which means he can't straighten the ring and little fingers on his hands.
On working with actor Bill Nighy, actor Christopher Walken said: ''Yes I was very aware of Bill and I'd met him before briefly. I've always admired him and when I heard that he was doing the films, I was in. I think to spend time with terrific actors is part of what this job is all about. I used to be a dancer so I compare it to dancing. You have a partner and you move together, and Bill is very quick, generous and responsive.''
The name given by Johnny Worricker for his imaginary father, 'Clifford', is the real name of the father of the film's writer, David Hare.
Writer-director David Hare said of Christopher Walken, "Christopher Walken did one scene where he's sitting on the balcony, he just talks about Turks & Caicos being a home for dirty money and it made me cry. I just sat there and thought, 'well, I'm never going to hear my work better spoken than that'. That for me was a high point. It's always going to be about the acting. The pleasure of being a screenwriter is a pleasure that makes no sense until the actor arrives. You've got nothing without the actor."
Bill Nighy said of co-star Christopher Walken, ''I was very apprehensive when filming a scene with him because obviously I wanted to do it as well as I possibly could, even more so when working with someone I admire so much." He added, "the fact that Christopher Walken should come and play in these films is a marvellous thing for me personally. I admire him as much if not more than anyone I can think of in terms of acting. The idea of acting with him was both thrilling and daunting. He plays a CIA operative who is involved in a similar operation to me, investigating the corrupt businessmen. The fact that he spots Johnny [because he's on a wanted list] is an added bonus for him, but it also means he can recruit Johnny to help him."
"[first lines] Curtis Pelissier: OK, here we are. Melanie Fall: Well, what a great evening. Thank you. Curtis Pelissier: If you want, I could come in, pour you a drink. Melanie Fall: Tell you the problem, I'm not thirsty. But I had a great time. Thank you. Curtis Pelissier: Good night."
"Johnny Worricker: Believe it or not, it's quite unusual to be approached by someone who claims to know you when they don't. That's why I went; I was intrigued; if I'd known one of the party was going to be killed, I wouldn't have gone. Jim Carroll: I dare say neither would he."
