The role of resistance leader Gerben Kuipers was originally to be played by Gijs Scholten van Aschat. When the production was delayed due to budgetary problems, he had become unavailable because of his stage commitments. Director Paul Verhoeven got the idea of casting Derek de Lint, with whom he had worked 28 years earlier on Soldato d'Orange (1977), when he accidentally came across De Lint's picture in the casting director's office. Ironically, De Lint played the complete opposite, a collaborator with the Germans, in Soldaat van Oranje (1977).
