Which movie have you heard about where the main character(s) were originally meant to be portrayed by a different actor or actress? Do you ever wonder what that alternate version would have looked like?

One interesting example is the role of originally offered to Tom Hanks in “Forrest Gump.” The character of Forrest Gump became iconic under Hanks’ portrayal, but it’s fascinating to think about how another actor might have interpreted the role. If it had been played by someone else, like John Travolta, it could have created a very different vibe for the character and the film overall. I would love to see that alternate reality version just to compare the performances and how it might have affected the film’s legacy. What about you? Any roles you wish had gone differently?
