In the film's final act, Jon gets a voicemail from Stephen Sondheim giving praise to Jon over the latter's "Superbia" workshop. But here's the thing: Whitford did record a voicemail in character...but when director Creator/LinManuelMiranda gave the real Sondheim an advanced screening of the film, Sondheim remarked that the message didn't seem like something he would actually say and offered, if there was time, to rerecord something that he wrote himself. Miranda, a massive {{Fanboy}}, immediately agreed (later joking that when Stephen Sondheim provides the voice of himself in the voicemail!says "if there's time," you ''make'' time for him).

* In 2013, HBO released ''Six By Sondheim'', a documentary about the legendary composer and lyricist Creator/StephenSondheim. The documentary explores Sondheim's life and work through six particular songs, all of which are performed in new styles (for example, Music/JarvisCocker sings "I'm Still Here" in a jazz club setting). "Opening Doors," from ''Theatre/MerrilyWeRollAlong'', is staged as a full musical number...and Sondheim himself plays the producer who shoots down his [[{{Expy}} Expies']] work ("There's not a tune you can hum..."). It's particularly effective because ''Merrily'' is, by Sondheim's admission, autobiographical--meaning that Sondheim gets to portray the very person who told him he'd never make it as a composer.
