A guy tells Mike Noonan (Pierce Brosnan) that he is the author's "number one fan", just as Kathy Bates' character says in Stephen King's "Misery" (1990).
Marty (Jason Priestley) tells Michael (Pierce Brosnan) that the spring fiction list is "looking a little bit crowded", including a "newly-discovered Bachman book". Stephen King published his early works under the pseudonym Richard Bachman.
Death (Julian Richings) and Pestilence (Matt Frewer) from "Supernatural" (2005) are in this.
Pierce Brosnan is the second James Bond to appear in a Stephen King adaptation. Barry Nelson, who played James Bond as an American in a television production of "Casino Royale," also appeared in "The Shining."
