Losing out on hundreds of millions of dollars is just one of the many regrets actors have had over turning down roles. Matt Damon was offered a role and a ridiculously large percentage of movie sales for Avatar. Paddy Considine entered House of the Dragon only after making a big mistake with Game of Thrones. Amandla Stenberg made a respectful decision to step away from playing Shuri in Black Panther. Tom Cruise could have been Iron Man and Leonardo DiCaprio could have been Spider-Man. Helen McCrory nearly played Helena Bonham Carter’s Bellatrix Lestrange in Harry Potter. Nearly. Aaron Taylor-Johnson turned down Deadpool which almost messed up his chances of being in Bullet Train. Oscar Isaac had his chance to play Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody but he made one silly mistake. Lily Allen would have had to get way too close to her brother, Alfie Allen in Game of Thrones if she’d said yes to the role. Emma Watson favored Beauty and the Beast over La La Land. Beyoncé had her shot at Beauty and the Beast and decided against it thanks to being offered a teeny tiny role. Jessica Chastain had to forfeit a role that went to Jennifer Lawrence. Jennifer Lawrence lost a role to Dakota Fanning. Alan Cumming cursed at the Harry Potter execs. Rachel McAdams was originally supposed to play Pepper Potts in the MCU but alas, it didn’t work out! Lucky she got her chance to be part of the Multiverse a little later on. Picking the right roles can sometimes be like betting at a casino. Despite all your strategies, you can’t win every time!
