- Jimmy McNulty as Theron continues with his philandering ways.
- And Stelios is a young Magneto
- Dilios was once known as Faramir.
- The film had an Unreliable Narrator, and fans love it for what it is. If you're curious, though, this article lists every inaccuracy regarding the film's portrayal of Persians.
- Throw It In: The Oracle's words are actually just ad-libbed gibberish by the actress who played her. Zack Snyder was delighted that she worked the word "Carneia" into it.
