Trivia / Homicide: The Movie

• Production Posse: Eamonn Walker played Kareem Said on Oz, created by Tom Fontana and executive produced by him and Barry Levinson.
• Promoted Fanboy: Though Jason Priestley was turned down for a role in the original series, he became a big fan of the show and always wanted to direct an episode, so Tom Fontana wrote the part of Detective Hall for him.
• Those Two Actors: Though they don't share a scene here, Terry Serpico, who plays white supremacist Karl Miller, appeared on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, featuring Richard Belzer. Serpico started as a guest star before eventually becoming a series regular.
