Iconic Film Roles That Were Nearly Played By Other Actors

Reese Witherspoon, Kirsten Dunst, Cameron Diaz, Alicia Silverstone - Just about every actress in Hollywood passed on playing Mia Thermopolis in ‘The Princess Diaries’ before Anne Hathaway nabbed her first ever film role.

1 of 25
Sarah Michelle Gellar - Alicia Silverstone may have been the perfect embodiment of a clueless teenager, but a pre-Buffy SMG was actually the first choice to play Cher Horowitz in the 1995 classic. Scheduling conflicts made her turn the role down.

2 of 25
Matt Damon - His breakout role in ‘Avatar’ put him on the A-list, but it could have all been so different for Sam Worthington had Damon not turned down the role of Jake Sully to star in ‘Green Zone’ instead.

3 of 25
Harrison Ford - Spielberg made the revelation during a Q&A session that Ford was his first choice to play Dr. Alan Grant in ‘Jurassic Park’. For Sam Neil’s sake the actor, fortunately, turned the role down.

4 of 25
Sandra Bullock - If the internet is to be believed, Bullock was originally considered for the role of Dr. Ellie Grant in the dinosaur blockbuster before losing out to Laura Dern.

5 of 25
Liam Neeson - Neeson turned down the iconic role of James Bond over two decades ago after his late wife Natasha Richardson told him that she would not marry him if he took the part. “I had to take that on board because I did want to marry her.”

6 of 25
Jennifer Lawrence - It turns out all our lives could have been very different had Lawrence’s audition for the part of Bella in the ‘Twilight’ series had gone better than it did for Kristen Stewart.

7 of 25
Robin Williams - Harry Potter fan Williams was vocal about the time he lobbied to play Hagrid in the movie franchise but was turned down because of his nationality, with J.K. Rowling insisting on British actors being cast in the films.

8 of 25
Macauley Culkin and Angelina Jolie - Of all the actors and actresses considered to play Jack and Rose in James Cameron’s blockbuster classic ‘Titanic’, its the prospect of ‘Home Alone’s’ Kevin painting Jolie in the nude that has us most wide-eyed.

9 of 25
Tom Cruise - Thanks to his now iconic underwear dance sequence in ‘Risky Business’, Cruise was an obvious first choice to play Ren McCormack in the 1984 musical ‘Footloose’ but was unavailable due to filming ‘All the Right Moves’ at the time.

10 of 25
Tom Cruise - It’s hard to believe now, but Cruise was also once earmarked to play Tony Stark in ‘Iron Man’. Oddly, his strange request to have his face shown at all times in the film through a transparent visor is apparently what lost him the role.

11 of 25
Al Pacino - Harrison Ford has this acting legend to thank for his breakout role as Han Solo in ‘Star Wars’ after Pacino - the studio’s first choice - turned down the role due to not understanding the film’s script whatsoever.

12 of 25
Russell Crowe - According to Jackman, Crowe was actually Bryan Singer’s first choice to play Wolverine, but after turning the role down he suggested his mate for the part instead.

13 of 25
Sarah Harding - The Girls Aloud singer is said to have got called back three times for ‘X-Men: First Class’ before eventually losing out to January Jones who plays super chill villain Emma Frost in the film. Yes, really.

14 of 25
Gwen Stefani - Speaking with Howard Stern on his SiriusXM show, Stefani revealed that she had auditioned for the role of Mrs Smith in ‘Mr and Mrs Smith’ and ALMOST got it. Imagine all the possibilities for what the world might look like now if she had

16 of 25
Leonardo DiCaprio - Though he was Paul Thomas Anderson’s first choice to play Dirk Diggler, DiCaprio turned down the part to star in a little movie called ‘Titanic’. The actor has since admitted that his biggest regret is turning down ‘Boogie Nights’.

17 of 25
Leonardo DiCaprio - Fresh off his ‘Titanic’ success, producers were keen for DiCaprio to play the lead in ‘American Psycho’. The director hated that idea though as she had always envisioned Christian Bale playing the narcissistic serial killer.

18 of 25
David Schwimmer - The Friends star was originally offered the role of Agent J in ‘Men In Black’ (before it went to Will Smith) but had to turn it down when he found out filming would conflict with directing his first film.

19 of 25
Jack Nicholson - One of Al Pacino’s most iconic roles as Michael Corleone in ‘The Godfather’ was nearly played by Nicholson who dropped out of the film after feeling like the role wasn’t quite right for him.

20 of 25
Bill Murray - With Warner Brothers originally wanting Tim Burton’s ‘Batman’ films to be a total camp-fest like the old TV series, Murray was originally the first choice to play the caped crusader before Michael Keaton eventually bagged the role.

21 of 25

24 of 25
Sean Connery - Half of Hollywood has this Scottish legend to thank for making a second career out of turning down famous roles. See: Dumbledore (Harry Potter), John Hammond (Jurassic Park), Gandalf (The Lord of The Rings), and Morpheus (The Matrix).
