Although Scott Caan and Casey Afflick nailed the roles of the Malloy Brothers, Turk and Virgil, they were not the original pick for the characters. Director Steven Soderbergh had his eyes on Luke and Owen Wilson to play the rambunctious and continuously bickering brothers.

Although the offer was enticing considering the cast and hype surrounding the movie, Luke and Owen Wilson ended up choosing to act in Wes Anderson’s The Royal Tenenbaums. However, nobody is complaining about their decision to do so or Scott Caan and Casey Afflick’s performances.
