* DawsonCasting: {{Averted|Trope}} with Martha (Morgan Turner was 17 during filming). Spencer and Bethany are a borderline case(Alex Wolff and Madison Iseman were 18 and 19 during filming). Played ridiculously straight with Fridge, as actor Ser'Darius Blain was not only 29 during filming, but is actually 8 months older than Karen Gillan.
