Trivia about Laputa: Castle in the Sky includes:
- No Export for You: Ironically, the soundtrack of the US score is only available for purchase in Japan even though the English dub is not sold over there.
- Hey, It's That Voice!:
- For the Disney dub, veteran voiceover Jim Cummings plays the Army General, which incidentally is not too different from his voicing of Razoul in Aladdin. Tress MacNeille also has a brief cameo, while Mike McShane plays one of Dola's sons (as do Mandy Patinkin and Andy Dick). John DiMaggio has a minor role as a army soldier as well. The best known voice over is Mark Hamill who plays the antagonist, Colonel Muska. His performance, along with Cloris Leachman's Dola, is considered one of dub's greatest assets. Anna Paquin also voices Sheeta.
- In the Japanese version, Mayumi Tanaka as Pazu. Seems appropriate, considering Pazu is one of the closest things to a typical Shonen hero you'll find in a film by Studio Ghibli.
