The role of Katherine Thorn was originally offered to Rachel Weisz, who declined because she was pregnant at the time. Other actresses considered for the part were Laura Linney, Hope Davis, and Alicia Witt, before Julia Stiles finally got the part. Stiles and Mia Farrow were both in a play together, and Stiles suggested to producer and director John Moore that they use Farrow for the role of Mrs. Blaylock (Damien's nurse). Initially, Moore didn't think that Farrow would accept the role, but Stiles convinced him she would. Eventually, he just rang up Farrow at her home and offered her the part.
