Attention, all readers thinking of buying me gifts in the future: I'd really love the newly-released book "Casting Might-Have-Beens." Among film buffs (or, more truthfully, film nerds) like myself, there's plenty of stories about famous performances that almost weren't.
What if, for instance, the role of Don Vito Corleon had gone to Ernest Borgnine instead of Marlon Brando? Or what if instead of Harrison Ford as Han Solo, we got John Travolta? Or--maybe my favorite--if Macauly Culkin had been cast as Jack in "Titanic"?
