21 Actors who almost got the part
too long to paste so I'll just link this up.
http://www.buzzfeed.com/ariellecalde...t-got-the-part Can you imagine Al Pacino as Han Solo? How bout Emily Blunt as Black Widow? Or how about Tom Cruise as Iron Man? Thank God they didn't get those parts. FTR, I think Jim Carrey would have been a solid Jack Sparrow. Not as good as Johnny Depp, but he'd still be pretty funny and entertaining IMO. |

This. One of my all time favorite characters and it was because of Harrison Ford. It'd be cool if we could still see these movies with these guys getting the role. Jim Carrey would've made an interesting Sparrow, but Johnny Depp was perfect for that role.

An all-timer to me is Stallone passing on Beverly Hills Cop and Eddie Murphy taking the role, but the best is still James Cameron considering OJ as the Terminator then deciding against it because he didn't think people would believe him as a soulless killer.

Stallone would have absolutely SUCKED as Axel Foley, that role went exactly the way it should have.

There's no way Back to the Future would have been a trilogy with Eric Stoltz. Don't get me wrong he was a good 80's actor but it would have gone down as just another 80's classic. Plus he used to be in movies with Lea Thompson all the time, thats probably how he originally got the role.

In the trivia section on John Cusacks page it said he was originally casted as John Bender in The Breakfast Club but John Hughes changed it at the last minute. Hes one of my fav actors of all time but they made the right choice to go with Judd Nelson. If you've seen the early 80's movie Class Cusack kind of played a badass so i could see him as Bender but it wouldn't have been the same, what do you guys think?
