===Notes===
* Theotocopulos's scenes were originally shot with [[Ernest Thesiger]]. Wells found his performance unsatisfactory, so he was replaced with Hardwicke and the footage reshot.<ref>Cooper (2012), p.15</ref>
* [[Terry-Thomas]], who would become known for his comic acting, has an uncredited appearance as an extra in the film, playing a "man of the future". It was his seventh film appearance.<ref>{{IMDb name|0856103|Terry-Thomas}}</ref>
* In some prints, Margaretta Scott is still credited with the dual role of Roxana Black and Rowena Cabal, but the latter character doesn't appear in the extant footage.
