It Was Not Supposed To Be Twin
Paul Dano was cast in a minor role as Paul Sunday during the film’s casting process, while actor Kel O’Neill was cast in a larger role as his younger brother Eli. Even though the two brothers were not twins in the original script, Anderson decided to make them identical twins after Dano shot his sole scene as Paul and asked if he’d want to portray Eli as well. Paul Dano was expected to be ready to play one of the film’s most important roles just four days after being offered the gig.
