20 actors who almost had roles in our favorite films but life decided otherwise…
After Matthew McConaughey read the Titanic script, he said that he couldn’t act in such a boring film and that the movie was destined to fail. Today, Titanic is a classic film and McConaughey has probably regretted his decision at least several times. Many actors feel for Matthew since they’ve also refused to star in films that could have made them more popular and famous.
Uniq Beauties has decided to imagine what would’ve happened if different actors (who almost signed contracts) had starred in some of our favorite cult movies.
6. Emily Watson as Amelie
Movie maker Jean-Pierre Jeunet felt sure Watson could play Amelie when he created his famous character. He really liked her in Breaking the Waves. But the actress passed: She didn’t know French well and wasn’t sure she could master the foreign language.
Fortunately, Audrey Tautou managed to fascinate Jean-Pierre Jeunet.
