Added DiffLines:

* ActingForTwo: Naturally, all the actors play both themselves and their counterparts.
* ActorAllusion: Jordan Peele voices a dying rabbit as his director's cameo, and has admitted in interviews that he is afraid of them. He also voiced a violent and chaotic rabbit, "Bunny", in ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory4'', another 2019 film.
* BillingDisplacement: Creator/ElisabethMoss and Tim Heidecker are billed above Shahadi Wright Joseph and Evan Alex for their minor side characters, whereas Joseph and Alex are among the film's leads.
* CreatorsOddball: Though it was produced by Jason Blum, ''Us'' is ''not'' a Creator/{{Blumhouse|Productions}} film (unlike ''Film/{{Get Out|2017}}'').
* AndIntroducing: Madison Curry, who plays Young Adelaide [[spoiler:and Adelaide's Tethered double Red.]]
* MethodActing: Creator/LupitaNyongo would stay in character as Red between takes.
* PlayingAgainstType: Comedian Tim Heidecker, of Creator/TimAndEric, plays Josh, who is in his usual wheelhouse as a sardonic and unhappy slacker, and Josh's doppelgänger Tex, a mute and vicious beast-like killer. This has an aspect of MetaCasting, as Creator/JordanPeele's career moved from comedy to writing and directing horror.
* ReferencedBy: A Franchise/GarbagePailKids card the same year as the movie featured [[https://www.instagram.com/p/B3KaUr3Fmfv/ Jordan Peeled]].
* RoleReprise: For one night only at [[Ride/UniversalStudios Universal Studios Hollywood's]] Theatre/HalloweenHorrorNights, Creator/LupitaNyongo portrayed Red again in a haunted house attraction based on the film.
* ThoseTwoActors: This film marks the second pairing of Creator/LupitaNyongo and Creator/WinstonDuke following ''Film/BlackPanther2018''. This is also the second pairing between Duke and Anna Diop after starring on ''Series/TheMessengers'' together.
