Bullet Train is based on a novel of the same name by Kōtarō Isaka, and though Maria Beetle is a leading character in the film, she doesn’t play as significant of a role in the book. According to Collider, Sony was intent on casting “a major star” in the role of Maria Beetle, and as an Oscar nominee, Sandra made perfect sense.
Aside from the expanded role that Maria Beetle’s character is set to play, there appear to be few other differences between the novel and the film adaptation. One other known discrepancy is the fact that Joey King’s character, The Prince, is male in the book.
