"Any of us can have anything, but none of us can have everything" ~ Robert Downey Jr. GREAT QUOTE

@randomdelhite937 Рік тому

But we can't*

@junglekutz5625 Рік тому

The desire to have everything, shouldn't even be a thought. As it reveals the absence of humility. Having everything that necessary, isn't the same as having everything just because.

MOST HUMANS take things "personally", when they shouldn't. EX: skill isn't why most actors get cast. The director / casting agents HAVE SOMETHING IN MIND INSIDE THEIR HEADS......and whichever actor FITS THAT Vision, is the winner. I've cast loads of people, and I have to remind them that they don't get it or fail to get it based on SKILL etc etc.

James Caan, who is a great actor, would have been a horrible choice for Superman. That would have been the quintessential case of miscasting.

@catherinesanchez1185 Рік тому

James Caan would have been a typical choice back In the 1960’s

@nsasupporter7557 Рік тому

They teased Robin Williams to play the Joker to get Jack Nicholson to take the part… I actually would’ve really liked to see Williams’ performance as the Joker, because he’s such an amazing actor. Same with Riddler… he was already cast as the Riddler when Tim Burton was gonna direct Batman Forever but was let go and replaced with Jim Carrey when they replaced Tim Burton with Joel Schumacher as director

@broncodeviltexas Рік тому

Always fascinating hearing what actor could have been in some of your favorite things.

@joemckim1183 Рік тому

James Caan would've been all wrong to play Superman. Christopher Reeve being an unknown at the time was actually perfect for the role since he didn't have any baggage of knowng him in other roles before being Superman. If James Caan was Superman it would feel weird seeing Sonny Corleone as Superman.

To hear that from Scarlett about Parent Trap is so interesting because I’ve said a million times that if Lindsey Lohan had kept her shit together she could have easily played Widow. She was natural red and already had a relationship with Disney from PT and Herbie.

@calvinkhumalo9780 Рік тому

At the time, Marvel wasn't owned by Disney yet so that relationship wouldn't have helped. I didn't see her Christmas rom-com from last year so I don't know if she's still got it but I'm rooting for Lindsay and I'm hoping she has a great comeback down the line.

@jtjr26 11 місяців тому

I agree if she did not rebel so much against being one of America's Sweethearts she probably would have gone on to grander things as she got older, instead of being fodder for the paparazzi for years.

@heinekenswordfish 10 місяців тому

Too much, too fast, too early. This is probably what Claire Danes meant when she said she didn't want to do Titanic because she wasn't ready for the fame it'd bring her.

@NC7491 Рік тому

The thing is if a different actor gets a part, then the role can be molded towards a different direction that fits the other actor better. So maybe Cryer's Chandler doesn't get to be iconic for his sarcasm but for something else. Having said that, the whole series might tank or not be as popular because the character doesn't connect the same way.
