  • The comic story As Time Goes By repurposes many characters and plot developments from the movie, without naming the characters. However, all such repurposed characters except for the Captain are secondary to the plot of the comic story.
  • The novel Deceit mentions Rick Blaine and Ilsa Lund without stating their last names and, additionally, using an alternative spelling "Elsa" instead of "Ilsa". The misspelling could be a typo or could reflect the way her name is pronounced in the movie by several characters, notably by Sam, who always calls her "Miss Elsa".
  • In the novel The Shining Man, Bill Potts tries to recall a scene from the movie where the character of Humphrey Bogart, who spoke with an American accent, said "Play it again, Sam." However, the movie is only identified by Bill as an "old movie". And this phrase, despite being commonly attributed to Rick and associated with Casablanca, did not appear in the movie in this form, while a similar phrase came from Ilsa, not from Rick.
