Interesting List



Found this interesting article on actors who turned down roles which became legendary… My favorites:

  • Mel Gibson - Turned down the lead role in Gladiator.
  • Denzel Washington - It’s rumored he turned down the role of “Ray Charles” in Ray.
  • Will Smith - Turned down the role that eventually went to Keanu Reeve in “The Matrix”, and the role of Stu in “Phone Booth.”
  • Julia Roberts - Turned down Sharon Stone’s leg crossing role in “Basic Instinct”.
  • John Travolata - Turned down the role of Forrest Gump.
  • Tom Hanks - Turned down the lead role in “Jerry Maguire.”
