The 2012 film adaptation starred Russell Brand, Tom Cruise, Julianne Hough, and Mary J. Blige.

The show's current Broadway cast includes Carrie St. Louis as Sherrie, Aaron C. Finley as Drew, Joey Calveri as Stacee Jaxx, Genson Blimline as Lonny, Adam Dannheisser as Dennis, Cody Scott Lancaster as Franz, Josephine Rose Roberts as Regina, Paul Schoeffler as Hertz, and Teresa Stanley as Justice.
