- Tom Hanks is rejected as a fit for Kaffee; Robert Downey Jr. is suggested, with debate about the best point in his career.
- A mid-1990s Matt Damon around Good Will Hunting or Rounders is proposed, although Kaffee’s age suggests an older actor.
- Will Smith and Brad Pitt are proposed as Dawson and Downey, with Pitt’s True Romance character providing a joking template.
- Angela Bassett is the preferred Jo, with Julianne Moore and Geena Davis as runners-up.
