#castingwhatif

One of my favorite topics when thinking about movies are casting what-ifs.

For instance:
Francis Ford Coppola wanted Burt Reynolds to play Michael Corleone. But Marlon Brando, who was already set to play Vito, threatend to leave the project, if Reynolds was cast in the role.

Do you know any casting what-ifs, do you have favorites?
