* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Kate Winslet was the first choice for Hanna, but had to turn it down due to scheduling conflicts with ''Film/RevolutionaryRoad''. Nicole Kidman was then cast, and they put the project on hiatus to allow her to star in ''{{Film/Australia}}''. After she had finished that, Nicole dropped out because she was now pregnant.

* CreatorBacklash: Producer Scott Rudin had his name removed from the film. The official line was he and Harvey Weinstein clashing over the release date, or else didn't want ''The Reader'' to also be campaigned for the Oscars with ''{{Theatre/Doubt}}'' and ''Literature/RevolutionaryRoad''.
* FakeNationality: Ralph Fiennes and Creator/KateWinslet, both English, play the Germans Michael and Hanna. David Kross, who plays the teenage Michael however, was German and learned English specifically for the film. Most of the supporting cast were also German.
* HostilityOnTheSet: Steven Daldry admitted to having a fight with the book's author Bernhard Schlink over an adaptation change - Hanna in the book learns about the Holocaust by reading from a list of works by Elie Wiesel, Primo Levi and Hannah Arendt. The director removed that, feeling it would give the impression that the movie was trying to redeem Hanna.
*WhatCouldHaveBeen: UnderageCasting: David Kross is initially a couple of years older than Michael is supposed to be (and for legal reasons, they had to wait for him to turn eighteen to film the nude scenes). But then he plays Michael eight years later.
