The doctor who confirms E.T.'s death was played by medical specialist and author James Khan, who was working in the ER at St. John's Hospital at the time. Khan and several of his coworkers were invited to join the cast in order to lend an air of authenticity to the medical scenes in the film. While on the set, Khan showed director Steven Spielberg his book "World Enough, and Time", and was offered the job to write the novelization for "Poltergeist", which was in post production at the time.
