7. Matt Damon In Star Trek
Director J.J. Abrams confirmed that he originally approached Matt Damon to take on the part in the new Star Trek remake, as Captain Kirk — however, the actor turned him down. But he was glad to have given the chance to hire little-known star Chris Pine.
8. Al Pacino In Pretty Woman
Pacino was Pretty Woman’s director Garry Marshall’s first choice to play the John who was taken on by Richard Gere. Would definitely have been quite a different feel to the movie.
9. Tom Selleck In Indiana Jones
Tom Selleck chose to take up the role to work on Magnum P.I. rather than the Raiders of the Lost Ark part. But we don’t really see Indy sporting a mustache, either.
