Chris O'Donnel was initially offered the role of Agent J but turned it down. In fact, Will Smith was not even the second choice for the film.

Thank God Will got the part. He played it perfectly.
Keanu would have killed that movie with his "acting" ability. |

Eric Stoltz was the original Marty McFly. Tom Selleck was the original Indiana Jones.
Those are pretty well known though.....

I actually saw on the DVD-on TV on AMC that Corey Hart (I wear my sunglasses at night) was originally cast as Marty McFly.

Never heard that one? Stoltz actually filmed scenes for about a month or so. You can see a few on one of the DVD sets or google his pics.

Bill Murray, John Travolta and Chevy Chase turned down the role of Forrest Gump. Travolta later admitted that passing on the role was mistake.

Pretty sure Chevy turned down Lester Burnham in American Beauty as well. The version I heard was he didn't think he was up to either of the roles (Gump or Burnham) which I actually really respect if true. Not many actors would turn down roles because they realize they aren't good enough.
