What's left behind the scenes

  • Leonardo DiCaprio was initially chosen for the role of young Edward Wilson, but he later declined to participate in the project.
  • The character of Matt Damon, Edward Wilson, is partially based on the biography of James Jesus Angleton, the founder of the CIA's counterintelligence.
  • Robert De Niro worked on his 'favorite project' for 10 years.
  • Robert De Niro's character, General Bill Sullivan, is partly based on the life of General William 'Wild Bill' Donovan. Donovan headed the Office of Strategic Services (the precursor to the CIA) during World War II.
  • Philip Allen, the character played by William Hurt, is somewhat based on the life of Allen Dulles, who joined the Office of Strategic Services and headed its intelligence center in Bern during World War II. He later became the Director of Central Intelligence. The CIA had fewer successes in the field of covert operations, and successes alternated with failures. In 1961, after the failed Bay of Pigs invasion, Dulles was forced to resign.
  • The solo, which was included in the soundtrack and plays towards the end of the film, was performed by violinist Lindsey Deutsch from Los Angeles.
  • Filming of the picture began in August 2005 and wrapped up in January 2006 in New York.
  • Eric Roth’s screenplay was long considered one of the best in Hollywood that hadn’t been filmed.
  • Most of the filming took place in the Dominican Republic.
  • A director’s cut of the film exists, with a running time of 167 minutes.
  • Archie Cummings, Bill Crudup's character, is partially based on the real life of British traitor Kim Philby, who studied at Cambridge University and was later revealed by British intelligence to be a Soviet spy. He later flew to Moscow, where he lived out the rest of his life. The film reflects this by showing a phone conversation between Wilson and Cummings, who is in the Soviet Union.
