American actor Adrian Brody said when he was trying to figure out the role of the pianist, he said that he saw an advertisement for the film in a London newspaper and applied for the role. The condition for casting the role is to be able to play the piano. Adrian Ann Brody could play the piano, and even took piano lessons in college, but he didn't expect to have the opportunity to be the protagonist of this film. Adrian Brody said that he tightened his pants and brought him to play Valladyslaw. He believes that the nature of the film makes him feel that he has a huge responsibility to play this role well. The director left Adrian Brody hungry for a while and insisted that he lose a lot of weight so that they could start filming from those hungry scenes. The German officer who made Valladyslau survived was played by German actor Thomas Kleizmann. For his performance in the film, he believes that he has benefited from a lot of help from Polanski.
