  • When it comes to iconic roles in film, we can’t imagine anyone else playing them but the actor we know now. Can you imagine Michael Corleone and Vito Corleone being played by any actors other than Al Pacino and Marlon Brando? The Godfather would have been a very different movie.
    But today we know that studio executives weren’t keen on having Al Pacino as Michael Corleone, and other great actors like Laurence Olivier and Burt Lancaster were considered for the role of Vito Corleone.
    It’s no secret that Hollywood is a super competitive industry where even A-list actors have to scrap it out for big parts. Here are 17 roles in Hollywood everyone went after.

      Nah, that's one of the least. I'm sure there were a hundred kids that could have done just as well. It's a kid's role, the actor isn't expected to give an Oscar worthy performance and so it's pretty easy to fill.

    • @Parallaxus
      @Parallaxus 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Children don't have the skill, the talent, the knowledge, or the maturity to bring to roles acting greatness that the best adult actors have to give. It's like picking people to play on the grade school basketball team. The kids all suck. There's not much of a skill gap between best and worst, as opposed to professional basketball. They're the cream of the crop. So, yeah, when you have a thousand kids audition for the role of Harry, there are prob a hundred who would do just fine. They're pretty much just looking for someone who looks the role.

    Not to mention Reese Witherspoon was the frontrunner for Amy Dunne, but then she decided it didn't fit her so she took the role as producer, which enabled her to take the role of Wild. In the end both she and Rosamund Pike were nominated for Best Actress that year. And why are you calling Alden Ehrenreich unknown? He's been a lead in quite a few movies.

    One of the very few films that no one has dared tried to re-make is "Gone With the Wind." How can you top Vivian Leigh, Clark Gable and Olivia de Havilland? But, even with this being sacred ground, it hasn't stopped film makers from trying to re-do such legendary films as "Ben Hur." There is nothing "sacred" in Hollywood. If they thought they could somehow withstand an instantaneous firestorm of protest at the mere suggestion of re-making "Gone With the Wind" producers would be faced with the daunting task of casting the roles. No one has the guts to even make an attempt. All producers know in advance that any such venture would implode. The film is spectacular -- all the more so for being shot in color in 1939. But what sets "Gone With the Wind" apart from any other film is the casting and the chemistry of the actors.
