Doug Liman notes the great actors in the film like Brian Cox and Chris Cooper and mentions one of the many advantages of working on a larger budget film. When previously working on films, when he shot Swingers (1996) and Go - Una notte da dimenticare (1999), for instance, he would have to say, "Let's get someone like Chris Cooper or Brian Cox." With The Bourne Identity, he began the same way with his casting director, Joseph Middleton. Middleton responded with, "Why don't we just get Chris Cooper and Brian Cox?". The same went with production designer, Dan Weil. Liman said he wanted to get someone like the designer who did Nikita (1990) and was answered with, "Why don't you just get that same person?".
