Well for me ethan hawk might be better
Matthew McConaughey as Ego, I'm picturing a planet say Alright Alright Alright.
This is missing the most notorious casting chase of them all, WB's legendary, obsessive pursuit of Josh Hartnett to be either Superman or Batman 2003. The offered him 4 total contracts, the final of which what would have become the largest contact in history, he still said no.
Will Smith as Superman? What was the idea behind that. Thank goodness he made the right choice turing it down.

@@Jadenrobinson-gq3fzWhat do you mean? Will smith looks nothing like superman. Comic superman was white, and so were all the animated ones. People just want to keep the character original. That’s like casting Jack black for Spider-Man. They’re amazing celebrities, but they just look nothing like the character. Also come on, Will smith for superman?

@Jadenrobinson-gq3fz Will Smith said himself, "You can't go messing up white people's heroes in Hollywood" as the reason behind turning down the role of Superman after bombing as James West in Wild Wild West. He played Agent J in Men In Black who is white in the comics but nobody cared because the comics were obscure and most movie audiences didn't know the movie was based on a comic book. You can get away with race swapping a more obscure character like Agent J and Deadshot from Suicide Squad but not a more well known character like Superman. After all, could you picture a white Steve Urkel or B.A. Baracus? And if you objected to it, would that make you racist?

I'm glad Russell Crowe didn't become Wolverine. I can't imagine anyone other than Jackman. Also, Pierce Brosnan would’ve been a good Batman.

Matt Damon As Mysterio
I would have loved to see Emily blunt play Black Widow or Peggy Carter ❤
I still think they should have proposed to Jon Hamm the role of Batman instead of Ben Affleck
Some of them were actually rejected during audition. I always thought Charlize Theron would make a great Capt Marvel
R.I.P Paul Walker
Matt Damon could play the daredevil
Just to be clear: Heath Ledger didn't refuse the role, in fact he even auditioned to get it, but then Christian Bale got it and Nolan kept it for another character, like a joker in the deck... (I'm terrible) Which he had already done with Cillian Murphy, he auditioned as Batman (who you can still find on YT) but then Nolan gave him the role of the scarecrow

Yea terrible, that’s not even a phrase. . . People in comment sections constantly reminding me how paced they are when desperately trying to be “funny”
Will Smith was never offered the role of Superman. In 1998 there were plans to make a Steel Movie. Will Smith turned down the initial offer for the title role and the project was abandoned due to DC executives not supporting the movie.
Bryan Cranston as Sebastian Shaw is something we missed out on. I loved Kevin Bacon’s portrayal but Cranston would’ve dominated it.
A lot of people who had the opportunity to play superman
It is good they rejected the offer. Only tom cruise fits the role. Others didn't.😢😢😢😢😢
The success of the other actors says the directors and or executives were wrong initially.
No wonder there are only 3 recycled actors who stars in both Marvel and DC EU's.
Yeah, because Will Smith looks like Superman.

A Joaquin Phoenix Bruce Banner would’ve been pretty neat to see.
I feel like Hopkins would have played a good freeze
I had no idea Matt Damon was supposed to play Harvey Dent in The Dark Knight
Anybody notice Keanu Reeves came two separate time for different roles, even though for other actors, they showed both at the same time.
Robin Williams as riddler would've been interesting
Jason momoa just didn't want to cut his hair

Paul Walker as Superman...hmm... interesting
I think Jude Law would have made a perfect General Zod to Brandon Routh's Superman.
I'm pretty sure Robin Williams actually wanted to play a Batman villain.
So heath ledger refused to become batman but became Joker instead? Nice!! Best joker for me, his version always terrified me.
The only one i think could match any of these roles is robin williams as the riddler. I think he would be good playing a weird puzzle lover, qustionaire. We’ve seen him play that type of role before
I think all of these turned out for the best.
Leo DiCaprio could and should play villain Harvey Two-Face in a future Batman movie.
"accpected"? Tobey "Meguier"? Morena Baccarin as Maya Hansen? Robbin Williams wasn't actually rejected as being cast as The Riddler. He was in Tim Burton's original idea for a third installment of Batman, something that was scrapped since Joel Schumacher took over Well done, pal...
*Heath Ledger* rejected Batman and acted as Joker. ☠️
Please one superhero flim with Keanu
Health leadger was the debutant Actually he doesn't got the role, instead of he got the iconic joker
Thank God some of them passed on the roles!
Will smith was not offered the role of Superman in Zack Snyder's Man of Steel taken by Henry Cavil, he was offered the role of Superman in Brian Singer's Superman Returns. Id say he dodged a bullet 😉
Matthew would be a great ego I belive😂
Sam Worthington As Doctor Strange
Thank god these people all rejected these roles.
Iron Man Saved RDJ's career.
Sandra Bullock als Wonderwoman??? Als Wundeknabe vllt. - so obenrum
Wait, Rebecca Hall accepted Maya Hansen
Madonna woulda made a siiick Catwoman.
"Accpected"
Madonna ok but should have been on Affleck universe
Matt Damon!
Madonna as catwoman? Nah, she's more like straycat woman...
I think we all can agree that from the artistic perspective, we’re glad that Madonna didn’t get the role
Robin william a joker WOW😮
Shuri is an iconic role? LMAO. Author has a sense of humor. 😂
Matt Damon could be cool daredevil matt demon
no,no,no .... Robin Williams want badly the joker role and, after Nicholson casting, the riddler role. He dont reject!
Thank God Will Smith rejected Super Man
Scripts are offered to dozens of potential actors who may be interested in the role....THIS IS DUMB
RDJ is Tony Stark all the way!
