Rather than dubbing in the gunshots during the bank robbery shoot-out, Michael Mann had microphones carefully placed around the set so that the audio could be captured live. This added to the impact of the scene, because it sounded like no other gunfight shown on-screen.

In an interview with Al Pacino on the DVD Special Edition, Pacino revealed that for the scene in the restaurant between Hanna and McCauley, Robert De Niro felt that the scene should not be rehearsed so that the unfamiliarity between the two characters would seem more genuine. Michael Mann agreed, and shot the scene with no practice rehearsals.

In an early draft of the script, Vincent Hanna had a cocaine habit, which, according to Al Pacino, explains his bombastic outbursts.

When Kevin Gage was imprisoned for two years in 2003, he was universally addressed by fellow inmates and prison guards as “Waingro”, his character from this movie.

In the director’s commentary, Michael Mann noted that Al Pacino improvised the line “Because she’s got a GREAT ASS!” Hank Azaria confirmed it, saying that Al Pacino’s unexpected outburst “scared the hell out of me”, “he just actually terrified me” and that his look of shock was “not acting at all”.

Val Kilmer was thrilled to learn that the moment in the gun battle scene where he runs out of bullets, and rapidly changes his magazine, is regularly shown to Marine recruits as an example of how to perform the action properly.

This was filmed without a single soundstage.

Waingro (Kevin Gage) is based on a real Chicago criminal named “Waingro”, who ratted out some influential Chicago criminals. According to Michael Mann, Waingro went missing. His body was found in northern Mexico, where it had been nailed to the wall of a shed.

In June of 2002, the scene involving the shoot-out after the bank robbery was shown to United States Marine recruits at MCRD San Diego as an example of the proper way to retreat while under fire.

The coffee shop scene sold Robert De Niro on the idea of making the film. He, Al Pacino, and Michael Mann later admitted that they couldn’t wait to shoot that one scene.

The first film to feature Robert De Niro and Al Pacino acting together, which created much hype prior to release. They both starred in The Godfather Part II (1974), but never shared the screen together as the split chronology prevented this. When this movie was finally released, even its advertising material promoted the film as a De Niro and Pacino “showdown”.

For the restaurant sequence where McCauley and Hanna finally meet, Michael Mann ran two cameras simultaneously in order to generate a greater level of fluidity between both rivals. Since there were no rehearsals for the scene, this approach afforded both men a more generous margin for improvisational experimentation.

Amy Brenneman disliked the script and didn’t want to be in the movie, saying it was too filled with blood with no morality. Michael Mann told her that with that mind set, she would be perfect for the role of Eady.

Danny Trejo, who plays a member of the crew, has been an inmate at Folsom Prison in real life, just like Neil in the movie.

Michael Mann made the movie as tribute to a detective friend of his in Chicago, who obsessively tracked and killed a thief (named Neil McCauley) he had once met under non-violent circumstances.

The meeting between Robert De Niro and Al Pacino over coffee was shot at Kate Mantilini on Wilshire Boulevard in Beverly Hills. The Los Angeles mainstay was a noted top spot for a stylish late supper. The restaurant had “heat” spelled in neon above the door and a large poster of the actors in the now famous scene. Diners could request the very table featured in the scene, table #71, which wait staff were familiar with as “The Table”, and were happy to seat De Niro and Pacino fans at their famous meeting place. The restaurant closed in late 2014.

In the director’s commentary, Michael Mann said that Neil’s trademark gray suits were designed to help him blend into a crowd and not draw attention to himself.

Ted Levine was originally offered the part of Waingro, but turned it down because he felt that he was being typecast. He asked to play the part of Bosko instead.

Jon Voight initially turned down the part of Nate, telling Michael Mann that there were several actors who could perform the part better. Mann told Voight that he wanted him for the role, since he’d always wanted to work with him.

During the famous bank robbery gunfight, Mann directed the actors portraying the police to aim deliberately and only fire their rifles in the semi-automatic mode. This showed that the police were taking care not to hit bystanders. By contrast the robbers – concerned only with their own safety – fire their weapons on full automatic, striking several bystanders in the process. In addition, the weapons accessible to detectives would normally be semi-automatic only.

Al Pacino revealed in Argentina when he performed An Evening With Al Pacino at the Teatro Colón, that when they had to rehearse the last scene, Robert De Niro told him: “No words”. He still thinks that that was the right call.

The “Console TV Man” who witnesses the armored car robbery was an actual homeless man who lived near the shooting location. Area shop owners used to leave an extension cord behind their stores so he could plug in his television set. He met the producers when they were scouting locations for the film, and they arranged for him to have a small role.

The explicit nature of several of the film’s scenes was cited as the model of a spate of robberies since its release. This included armored car robberies in South Africa, Colombia, Denmark, Norway, and most famously, the 1997 North Hollywood shoot-out, in which Larry Phillips, Jr. and Emil Matasareanu robbed the North Hollywood branch of the Bank of America and, similarly to the film, were confronted by the LAPD as they left the bank. This shoot-out is considered one of the longest and bloodiest events of its type in American police history. Both robbers were killed, and eleven police officers and seven bystanders were injured during the shoot-out. This movie was widely referenced during the coverage of the shoot-out.

In order to prepare the actors for the roles of McCauley’s crew, Michael Mann took Val Kilmer, Tom Sizemore, and Robert De Niro to Folsom State Prison to interview actual career criminals.

The two main characters used to be in the Marine Corps. Detective Hanna (Al Pacino) is talked about during the briefing for McCauley’s (Robert De Niro’s) final robbery. McCauley is clearly seen with an Eagle, Globe, and Anchor tat on his arm, when getting up from bed with Eady (Amy Brenneman).

Bosko, at the party, tells a story of a grade school friend of his named Raoul. Michael Mann said that the story was completely ad-libbed by Ted Levine, and that he had no idea how Levine came up with it.

When Michael Mann filmed the restaurant scene at Kate Mantilini in Beverly Hills, he used the restaurant’s actual employees as extras. Upon the last day of filming, he awarded them all with a SAG card.

Michael Mann visited inmates in Folsom prison to gain some insight into prison life, to aid his depiction of Neil (Robert De Niro). Mann later commented that Neil’s collars were always perfectly starched, as they would have been in prison.

Nate (Jon Voight) is based on real-life former career criminal Edward Bunker. Bunker had previously starred in another famous heist film, Reservoir Dogs (1992).

Al Pacino and Robert De Niro were Michael Mann’s first choices for Hanna and McCauley.

Keanu Reeves was originally signed to play Chris Shiherlis, and Carsten Norgaard was also one of Michael Mann’s options, but they both lost the part when Val Kilmer was able to squeeze it into his schedule while making Batman Forever (1995).

According to Val Kilmer’s autobiography, his agent tried to convince him not to act in this film because he wouldn’t be paid what his stardom was worth by the budget, especially while Kilmer was filming Batman Forever (1995)- the highest-grossing live-action film of that year. However, Kilmer insisted on taking the role and asked Michael Mann to compensate him by putting his face on the film’s poster sandwiched between Al Pacino and Robert De Niro, which Mann happily agreed to.

Val Kilmer stated the main reason he chose to act in this film was so that he would be able to call Al Pacino and Robert De Niro “Al and Bob” the rest of his life.

Mykelti Williamson, in the Special Edition DVD of the movie, said in an interview that Michael Mann arranged for cast members to meet with real-life LAPD detectives and professional criminals at an exclusive restaurant (the name of which Williamson refused to disclose) where LAPD detectives and criminals socialized. Cast members playing the detectives had dinner with the LAPD detectives and their wives one night, while the cast members playing the thieves had dinner with the real-life criminals and their wives on a separate night. Williamson said that Mann arranged these events so the actors and actresses would have a better idea of how real detectives and criminals socialized and interacted with each other.

In a promotional interview for The Keep (1983), Michael Mann stated that he wanted to see “Heat” brought to the screen (it was already written) but had no interest in directing it.

Before Danny Trejo was hired to play the role of “Trejo” in this movie, he and Edward Bunker, a writer, were hired to be armed robbery consultants, since they both did time for these crimes, and knew the ins-and-outs of performing such crimes. When Michael Mann spotted Danny, Mann introduced him to Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, Val Kilmer, and Jon Voight, where they discussed the cops-and-robbers shtick. After the meeting, Trejo would earn this role.

Dennis Farina, a former Chicago police officer, was a consultant on the film since the story was based on a Chicago police officer and criminal. Farina had previously played a Chicago cop in Michael Mann’s television series Crime Story (1986).

Robert De Niro was the first cast member to get the film script. He showed it to Al Pacino, who also wanted to be a part of the film.

According to Danny Trejo, Val Kilmer (who was still filming Batman Forever (1995) at the time) told him on set that he had just refused an offer of $40 million to reprise his Batman role in another film, because he did not want to waste his talent wearing a mask. Trejo was very amused by this, because Kilmer’s role in Heat also required him to wear a mask during the robbery scenes.

Diane Venora was bemused that she got the part of Al Pacino’s wife, seeing as the screenplay described her character as a “languorous redhead with thighs for days”.

The drive-in sequence was shot at the Centinela Drive-in in Inglewood, California, which had been closed since 1993. The theater was demolished in 1998, and the site is now occupied by an apartment complex.

Waingro tells the bartender he spent time at Folsom State Prison and then at the “SHU” (Special Handling Unit) at Pelican Bay. Pelican Bay State Prison is where California houses the most dangerous of its most dangerous prisoners, and the S.H.U. is solitary confinement.

During a February 2016 discussion at the Brooklyn Academy of Music in New York, Michael Mann revealed the locations of the real-life inspiration for the famous “coffee scene” between Robert De Niro and Al Pacino. Chicago detective Chuck Adamson ran into the real-life Neil McCauley while picking up dry cleaning on Lincoln Avenue and Belden Avenue in Chicago. The two went to the now-closed Belden Deli at 2301 N. Clark Street in Chicago, a few blocks away. The diner was knocked down, and reconstructed in the 1990s, and is now the location of the Eleven City Diner.

The gun battle scene used up 800 to 1,000 rounds per take.

The cast was given weapons and tactics training by former British Special Air Service members Andy McNab and Mick Gould. Gould has a cameo as one of the cops who breaks into Henry Rollins’ flat.

The scene of McCauley standing against a window and watching the ocean was inspired by the painting “Pacific” by Alex Colville.

For the sequence where Neil (Robert De Niro) and Eady (Amy Brenneman) discuss a possible future together on a terrace at night, Michael Mann and cinematographer Dante Spinotti wanted to capture the background “nightscape” with some degree of prominence in the shot. The actors were first filmed in front of a green screen, which was placed at the actual terrace, and the background was then filmed separately with the camera running at 3 frames per second in order to boost the exposure level to better complement the foreground activity.

Val Kilmer was so experienced with heavy weaponry and ammunition, having earlier been taught to use all varieties of guns by his father and grandfather on his home ranch and at Julliard, that he assisted the technical assault team members in teaching the other cast members how to comfortably maneuver and use their weapons during the lengthy practice sessions.

During the bank shootout Mann wanted to realistically portray the damage caused by gunfire. Several of the cars used in the scene were taken to a firing range and shot up with real rifles. The bullet holes were then filled with bondo, painted over, and then blown open with squibs on camera.

Al Pacino had a full facelift before filming began.

While researching her role, Ashley Judd met several former prostitutes who became housewives.

In a Japanese television interview in 1995, Robert De Niro and Al Pacino got asked “which role-play, police or robber, did you do when a boyhood?” De Niro replied, “Police”, Pacino did “Police doing robbery”.

Michael Mann stated in an interview that Chris met Charlene in Las Vegas, when he was on a huge win streak at the blackjack table, and she was a high priced call girl.

Michael Mann had wanted to work with Robert De Niro ever since he first saw him in Mean Streets (1973).

Don Johnson was briefly considered for the part of Michael Cheritto. He was also discussed as a possible back-up for both Robert De Niro and Al Pacino, if one of them turned down their parts.

Composer Elliot Goldenthal wrote a piece of score to play over the final scene. Michael Mann replaced it with Moby’s “God Moving over the Face of the Water,” so Goldenthal re-used the piece as the end titles for Michael Collins (1996) the following year, replacing the electric guitar with a fiddle to give it a more Irish sound. The original cue, called “Hand In Hand,” can be heard at Goldenthal’s website.

Hank Azaria was also working on The Birdcage (1996) while he filmed his scene in this film. The scene was filmed on his thirtieth birthday. It was Al Pacino’s fifty-fourth birthday as well.

Neil McCauley is never seen driving the same car, which implies that he frequently abandons cars and acquires/steals his next ride.

Lieutenant Hanna is shown “checking the chamber” on his handgun in at least one scene. This is a trademark of the character Nick Stone in a series of novels by Andy McNab, who was technical weapons training adviser on Heat (1995). Although not an uncommon thing to do with a handgun, it is rarely given such visual prominence in films. Also, the crew’s tactics in the bank robbery shootout are notably similar to the “response to enemy fire” tactics featured in the book and film of McNab’s Bravo Two Zero (1999).

The famous French gangster Redouane Faïd, an armored truck robber, confessed in front of Michael Mann, at the French cinémathèque in Paris, that he was highly inspired by his two films: Heat and The Thief to become a hoodlum and perform armored truck heists.

The train station shown in the beginning of the film is the same station featured at the end of Collateral (2004), which was also directed by Michael Mann.

This is one of Christopher Nolan’s favorite films. The film inspired his vision of Gotham City in The Dark Knight trilogy. Interestingly, this began a decade after Heat (1995) was released, with Batman Begins (2005), The Dark Knight (2008) and The Dark Knight Rises (2012). To continue the Batman theme, Val Kilmer played the titular character in Batman Forever (1995).

Xander Berkeley plays Ralph, a minor character. He also played Waingro in L.A. Takedown (1989), of which this film is a remake. Michael Mann directed both movies.

Among the parallels in the characters of Neil and Vincent are that both are stylish dressers, both are former Marines, both are relentless in their activities, they both sacrificed their romantic relationships for the sake of what they do, and they both checked their guns to make sure they had a chambered round before breaking down a door.

James Caan has been rumored to have been considered for the role of Nate. Caan lamented to Michael Mann that he did not get to star in Heat on their 1998 DVD commentary for Thief (1981).

Several tests were done to ensure that the armored car would tip over when struck by the tow truck during the first robbery scene. Ultimately weight had to be added to the roof of the armored car, shifting its center of gravity upward so it would tip over on its side.

The scene involving the shoot-out after the bank robbery was particularly tricky to film, since they were only allowed to film on the weekends.

Vincent Hanna’s Armani suits and slicked-back hair are an homage to Los Angeles Lakers coach Pat Riley. Riley’s style was also copied by Michael Douglas in Wall Street (1987) and by Kurt Russell in Tequila Sunrise (1988).

Natalie Portman’s second film.

Johnny Depp was considered for the role of Chris Shiherlis, but his asking price was deemed too high. Michael Mann later went on and worked with him in Public Enemies (2009)

From Al Pacino’s line, “Gimme that shotgun,” to Robert DeNiro’s penultimate line, “Told you I’m never going back,” six minutes twenty-two seconds elapse, with no dialogue, more than three and a half percent of the movie’s entire two hour fifty minute runtime.

In the original script, Eady was Chinese.

During pre-production weapons trainer Mick Gould related a story from his time in the British Army. While on patrol in Northern Ireland his land rover was ambushed, and he returned fire straight through the vehicle’s windshield. This inspired the scene where Neil fires through the windshield of the getaway car during the bank shootout.

Deleted scenes found on the Special Edition DVD give more character development to Michael Cheritto, showing him to be a well-adjusted family man.

U2 isn’t mentioned during the song credits, because they contribute a track under the name of “The Passengers”, which was a collaboration with Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois. A 30 second instrumental music track of U2’s making can be heard, when Al Pacino is driving towards the nightclub to meet the snitch.

Although this is the second film on which Al Pacino and Robert De Niro have shared top billing, in The Godfather Part II (1974), they didn’t have a scene together. In this movie, they only have two scenes together, for a total of less than ten minutes.

Included among the American Film Institute’s 2001 list of 400 movies nominated for the top 100 Most Heart-Pounding American Movies.

In the original script, the gunman at the drive-in was still alive after being shot at and run over. Neil executes the shooter a few moments after approaching and talking to him. In the final film, the shooter appears to be dead, since this scene is absent.

The actors who took part in the robbery sequence had to undergo power weapons training.

When Sergeant Drucker (Mykelti Williamson) says to Charlene (Ashley Judd) her son could end up at “gladiator academies”, like Chino and Tracy, he’s referring to Deuel Vocational Institution state prison in Tracy, California. The California Institution for Men is commonly known as “Chino”, and is a state prison located in the city of Chino, San Bernardino County, California. “Gladiator academy”, is a reference to how a prison is a place where you learn to fight in order to survive. In such a place, Charlene’s son would end up being a career criminal.

Keanu Reeves. fresh off his role in Speed, turned down the role of Chris Shiherlis to do Hamlet on stage.

Writer and Director Michael Mann is one of Robert De Niro’s favorite Directors.

Gong Li was offered the role of Justine Hanna. She refused, unless the script was translated into Mandarin. She would later star in Michael Mann’s Miami Vice (2006).

The armored car robbery in earlier scripts is a bit different. Its street location is much different, and the escape is a lot tighter, as the crew actually rams several police cars while they’re escaping after shooting the three guards.

The date of birth given for Vincent Hanna’s applications, reviewed by Neil and Nate, is 7/15/1953. Al Pacino was born in 1940. In the same application, the profession is listed as Salesperson. Neil identifies his profession to Eady as Salesman.

Jon Voight’s first film to get a wide theatrical release since Runaway Train (1985). Desert Bloom (1986) had been given a limited release, and his other projects in the interim were made for television or went direct to video. The film began a resurgence of high-profile roles for the Oscar winner, culminating in his fourth Oscar nomination for Ali (2001), also directed by Michael Mann.

Mel Gibson and Harrison Ford were considered for the lead roles of Vincent Hanna and Neil McCauley.

The place where Neil meets Eady for the first time is called The Broadway Deli, a more upscale version of a regular deli, and it attracted quite a few celebrities during the time of filming. It was located at 1457 3rd Street Promenade in Santa Monica, being a short distance away from the Santa Monica Place mall, which appeared in “Fast Times at Ridgemont High”. The Broadway Deli closed in 2012.

The cast includes four Oscar winners: Al Pacino, Robert De Niro, Jon Voight, and Natalie Portman.

A Marine Corps plaque appears briefly in Vincent’s office in the Major Crimes Unit, although the traditional crossed swords are removed.

William Fichtner (Roger Van Zant) appeared in the bank robbery sequence that opened The Dark Knight (2008). It was directed by Christopher Nolan, who has named this movie as an influence on his vision of Gotham City.

A video game adaptation was reported to be in development around 2009, but never came to fruition.

Initially, Michael Mann shopped the script to Walter Hill to direct, but Hill turned him down.

Interestingly, at the crime scene when Bosko describes to Hanna what they know about the robbery of the armored car, Bosko states that the witness overheard one of the guards “mouthing off”, and that one of the robbers had addressed the guard as “slick”. This is in fact not the case, during the robbery none of the guards speak to McCauley’s crew, and it is Waingro who is addressed as “slick” by Cherrito. This of course can be explained as the witness being mistaken, but this dialogue comes from an original draft of the script, where the guard did indeed mouth off to Waingro, and it is the guard who is called “slick” by Cherrito.

The restaurant where Neil meets with Michael and Chris to expunge the rebel Waingro was called Johnie’s Broiler, located at 7447 Firestone Blvd, in Downey, CA, about 12 miles southeast of downtown L.A.

Madeleine Stowe turned down the role of Justine Hanna.

Brad Pitt was considered for the role of Chris Shilerhis.

Nick Nolte and Jeff Bridges were discussed as a possible alternative for the two leading roles.

The camera used by both Neil and Casals in the “We just got made” scene is a Nikon F4, at the time Nikon’s flagship 35mm SLR. Casal’s has the Nikon logo blacked out. Neil’s does not. They use different lenses.

In April 1994, Michael Mann was reported to have abandoned his earlier plan to shoot a biopic of James Dean, in favor of directing.

In the original script, the burglary-cop Harry Dieter was questioned and threatened by Vincent Hanna because he was given a tip by C.I. Hugh Benny. After Hanna and Bosko leave, Dieter is left with a booking officer. This would have taking place just before Hanna and Bosko (now Hanna and Casals) breaching Hugh Benny’s flat. But this scene is absent in the final movie.

Jean Reno was considered for the role of Chris Shiherlis.

According to an interview with Michael Mann on The Rewatchables, Kate Winslet tried out for the role of Lauren Gustafson (which eventually went to Natalie Portman)

The opening armored van heist scene of the film was the major inspiration for the mission “Blitz Play” in the video game Grand Theft Auto V (2013). In that mission, the protagonists rob an armored car similar to the style of the film.

Drucker’s name was Arriaga in the original film, L.A. Takedown (1989), though he was not a sergeant.

Included among the “1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die”, edited by Steven Schneider.

This movie features three actors who have played killers pursued by the FBI in movies based on Thomas Harris novels. Manhunter (1986), based on Harris’ novel Red Dragon, featured Tom Noonan as the serial killer Francis “The Tooth Fairy” Dolarhyde. The Silence of the Lambs (1991), based on the Harris novel of the same name, featured Ted Levine as the serial killer Jame “Buffalo Bill” Gumb. Hazelle Goodman appears as ‘Evelda Drumgo’ in Hannibal (2001). Coincidentially, Michael Mann is also the director of Manhunter, and Dennis Farina, who consulted this movie, played Jack Crawford in Manhunter.

This is Tom Hiddleston’s favorite film.

Jean-Claude Van Damme was briefly considered for the role of Michael Cheritto.

A poster of Miles Davis is featured in the background during a scene with Al Pacino. A live performance of a song from a Miles Davis record called “Bitches Brew” was featured in another film by director Michael Mann, called Collateral, in which a recollection of an encounter with Miles Davis is written into the dialogue.

Before Van Zant is killed by Neil in his home he’s watching a hockey game, Neil and his crew all wore hockey masks during the opening robbery. The hockey helmets/team is a parallel to Neil’s crew. Van Zant thought he could sit back and watch the game like an outside spectator until Neil crashes his protected world (symbolically destroying his glass window) to reveal that he was never safe. When he decided to screw over Neil, he entered the game. Thus, killing Van Zant like any other criminal who crosses them.

Hank Azaria based Moe’s voice in The Simpsons on Al Pacino in Dog Day Afternoon and the actors appear together in this film.

William Petersen turned down the role of Michael Cheritto.

In the UK, the film was given a “15” rating for both its cinema and video release and passed uncut in both instances. It was re-released in 2000 with a new “Underground Epics” video cover, bearing an “18” certificate. However, this was not a different version of the film, the content was the same as the “15” version. The “18” certificate was a mistake, and the video cover was withdrawn.

Film in 95 locations over a period of 107 days.

Trejo’s name was originally Towner.

In the original script, Casals was the detective wounded during the shoot-out sequence.

Robert De Niro and Al Pacino both played versions of Satan. First was Robert De Niro in the (1987) film “Angel Heart” his character’s name was Louis Cypher (Lucifer). Ten years later, Al Pacino would star in the (1997) film “The Devil’s Advocate” his character’s name was John Milton, who was a famous poet, that wrote “Paradise Lost” an epic poem about Satan.

Actor and former thief John Santucci filmed scenes as a fence that were ultimately deleted from the final cut.

In his book “Modern Romance”, Aziz Ansari recounted a dating story when he was living in a rented house in Los Angeles. The house is the same one, in which Trejo (Danny Trejo) lives.

This film is in the Official Top 250 Narrative Feature Films on Letterboxd.

The armored car robbery originally had a different street location, and the escape is a lot tighter, as the crew actually rams several police cars escaping after shooting the three guards.

The film features the track “Armenia” from German industrial band Einstürzende Neubauten, which was used again by Michael Mann in his next film, The Insider (1999).

Al Pacino and Diane Venora were both in The Insider (1999), also directed by Michael Mann.

Justine was called Lillian in the original film: L.A. Takedown (1989).

During the scene when Detective Danny Schwartz is talking with Lieutenant Vincent Hanna over the phone, a man speaking with a detective can be seen on a television screen behind Schwartz.

Goodhew Ambulance also shows up in the 1994 film, Speed.

The scene of the armed robbery at a shopping mall is based on a real event. In the late eighties there was a similar event at a swank shopping mall in the San Fernando Valley next to Los Angeles.

This is the second film in which Robert De Niro co-stars with a voice actor from ‘The Simpsons’-Hank Azaria. The first film is 1990’s ‘Awakenings’ in which he co-starred with Julie Kavner.

Jeremy Piven, Xander Berkeley, and Tom Noonan all appeared in Phoenix (1998); Jeremy Piven as Fred Shuster, Xander Berkeley as Lt. Clyde Webber, and Tom Noonan as Chicago.

Xander Berkeley (Ralph) and Tom Noonan (Kelso) both appeared in Seraphim Falls (2006).
