During a 2014 interview on the National Public Radio program "Fresh Air," director Bennett Miller said that almost all of the scouts depicted in the movie were also played by actual scouts: "Most of those guys are just scouts and there's a couple of actors in there. You know, we were just researching it and trying to get a sense of what these meetings are like and invited a whole bunch of scouts to just talk to us about how they approach things and you know, what these kinds of meetings are. And we brought, I don't know, probably 20 guys together when we were prepping the film and just to have a round-table discussion and to reenact something and we just stirred it up and watched it go, and you know, sitting with Brad Pitt and we'd just look at each other and wonder, why are we trying to cast actors? Let's just invite these guys back and let's just say--we'll just tell them to study that season and say, you're working for the A's and how would you go about it? And you know, that sort of in a hybrid with the script, written by Steven Zaillian and Aaron Sorkin, just sort of brought it to life."
