History YMMV / Dismissed

* DawsonCasting: Dylan Sprouse and Rae Gray were both 25 years old while playing seniors in high school.
** Dylan Sprouse's hair has consistently remained shoulder length or slightly longer since around 2014, if social media is anything to go by. In the film, he has an undercut with hair to his jawline, so there is the possibility that filming took place sometime in 2013. This is purely speculative, but it would mean that both Sprouse and Rae Gray were around 20, 21 at the time of filming[[note]] both actors were born in 1992[[/note]]; nonetheless, the trope still stands.

--> ''"AND IAGO SAYS, " AND WHAT'S HE THEN THAT SAYS I SHOULD PLAY THE VILLAIN?"!" *wildly brandishes a pen*''
* PlayingAgainstType: Dylan Sprouse is most well-known as Zack Martin of Series/TheSuiteLifeOfZackAndCody and its spinoff, Series/TheSuiteLifeOnDeck fame.
* RetroactiveRecognition: [[Series/TheSuiteLifeOfZackAndCody Zack Martin]] is a murderous overachiever. Were Mr. Moseby the principal, you could be sure his reaction to Lucas's plans would be something along the lines of "[[MemeticMutation NO KIDNAPPING INFANTS IN MY LOBBY!]]"
** Moving out of [[Series/TrueBlood Bon Temps]] with a psycho for a kid could not have ended worse for Sheriff Andy Bellefleur.
** When did [[Series/FreshOffTheBoat Louis Huang]] become a teacher?!

* HilariousInHindsight: A meta example, but Dylan Sprouse's claim to fame is as BrilliantButLazy {{Kidanova}} Zack Martin from Disney's ''Series/TheSuiteLifeOfZackAndCody''. His twin brother Cole plays the {{Adorkable}} {{Bookworm}} Cody, making his role as Lucas essentially the villainous {{Expy}} of Cody Martin taken UpToEleven. Cole plays a DarkerAndEdgier version of Jughead in ''Series/{{Riverdale}}''--some of the traits his character has in the show aligning more closely with Zack in ''Suite Life.'' While they both went for darker, grittier roles upon returning to acting, the first projects they both undertook were in a way the darker versions of the characters that made each other famous.

* HeReallyCanAct: This is the first film or acting project Dylan Sprouse has done since ''[[Series/TheSuiteLifeOfZackAndCody Suite]] [[Series/TheSuiteLifeOnDeck Life]]'', and with the exception of the film ''"Uncle Kent"'', Kent Osborne is most well-known as one of the writers, storyboard artists and voice actors for ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'' and ''WesternAnimation/RegularShow''. The majority of reviews in particular praise both their acting above all else.

* Narm: What does Lucas do when David shows up during the climax to rescue his infant son? Start screaming quotes from ''Othello'' on the top of his lungs while holding a pen over the baby as a weapon.
