** Neil Jordan had wanted Creator/AndyWarhol to play the role of the Devil. Producer Stephen Woolley travelled to New York City to meet Warhol, who had recently been shot, and Warhol agreed to do this movie. However, fearing for his life if he traveled, he would only play the role if his scenes were shot in New York City. This was impossible, and so Jordan cast his friend Creator/TerenceStamp in the role. Stamp agreed to do the role if Jordan bought him a suit, which he did, much to Stamp's amusement.
