The film stars David Duchovny , Timothy Hutton, and Angelina Jolie.

"I feel like I discovered Angelina Jolie," Duchovny said in an interview when asked what he thought about his former co-stars."

"I was casting, I was part of the casting. I didn't discover her, but... she came in, and I just knew she was a movie star, and I told everybody [that] we've gotta cast her," he explained.

The film written by Mark Haskell Smith, centred on "a disgraced surgeon [who] leaves his former life and reinvents himself as a gunshot doctor in the criminal underworld."

'Playing God' also starred Timothy Hutton, Michael Massee, Peter Stormare, Andrew Tiernan, Gary Dourda, John Hawkes, and many more.
