Even the most acclaimed stars in Hollywood have been rejected from a successful production and while some regret not having been part of it, others are grateful to have been left out, as was the case with Emma Stone.
We know that the choice of an actor can define the success or not of a production, por what the directors of casting they take their job very seriously and do all kinds of tests to choose the right one. Some celebrities showed that they were born for their character, as was the case with Henry Cavill with Superman, Margot Robbie with Barbie or Emma Watson as Hermione Granger, but what would have happened if another actor had been left in his place?
Auditions are one of the most important processes in any production and there are stars who have been left out of big box office hits, either due to tight schedules, not trusting the project or not meeting the director’s expectations. One of the best known cases is that of Matt Damon who refused to appear in Avatar of James Cameron losing a fortune, the same happened with Brad Pitt who refused to play Neo in matrix. No doubt his careers would have changed dramatically, but while some regret not having been booked, there are those who celebrate having run out of paper, as is the case with these actresses.
