- Dawson Casting
- A mild example with Cassie (16 years old) and Ben (c. 18 years old) whose respective actors, Chloë Moretz and Nick Robinson were eighteen and twenty.
- Ringer, who is at most seventeen or eighteen, is played by the twenty-two year old Maika Monroe.
- Sammy, 5 years old, is played by 9 year old Zackary Arthur, While 7 year old Teacup is played by 14 year old Talitha Bateman.
- Star-Derailing Role: While not the first stinker in a row, the film has the dishonour of being the final nail in Chloë Grace Moretz's high-profile career. To the point where she herself decided to just take a pause from acting. While she did come back a few years later, her career never regained the early '10s momentum.
- Stillborn Franchise: Moretz hoped this would be her big screen series, but the film's weak reception, although it did make its money back, it's very unlikely the other two books will be filmed.
