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.
3. Sacha Baron Cohen as Freddie Mercury (Bohemian Rhapsody)
The idea of creating a film about Freddie appeared 8 years ago and Sacha Baron Cohen was supposed to play the main part, but he turned down the role due to a conflict with the members of Queen. Cohen wanted the film to be more realistic and harsh and the band insisted on a family drama.
Sacha Baron Cohen was replaced with Rami Malek and the actor did an amazing job. The film was released in October 2018.
