Infinite Worlds: Movies for your Alternate Earths!
Found a great link, with movie posters shopped to include the original performers considered for the roles. Some of them are just wild. :)
Link is here: http://wildammo.com/2010/06/03/if-mo...ginal-casting/ Includes some interesting ones like: Will Smith starring in the 'Matrix' as Neo. Matt Damon and Ben Affleck in 'Brokeback Mountain.' and Jim Carrey in 'Meet the Parents'.

Matt Damon and Ben Affleck weren't in Brokeback Mountain?
*checks the local time/space continuum* Hmm.

Nicholas Cage as John Constantine. I must say, he would have been much better than Keanu Reeves (but then again, I still keep an ear out for Reeves to say "Dude!" in any movie he's done ... He'll never escape Bill & Ted).

And of course, who can forget the now-legendary choices of Tom Selleck as Indiana Jones in "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and Eric Stoltz as Marty McFly in "Back to the Future?"

Re: Infinite Worlds: Movies for your Alternate Earths!
We were kicking this idea around for Gernsback-2 a few weeks ago... Our list:
(Who do I have to bribe to get posters of these mocked up?)

And who can forget that awesome remake of the Sound of Music by George Romero with Robert Englund as Georg von Trapp?

Re: Infinite Worlds: Movies for your Alternate Earths!
Okay, everything else was either cool or harmless. But this offends me!
In retribution, I present to you: Star Wars, starring Richard Thomas as Luke Skywalker, George Peppard as Obi Wan Kenobi, Jon Saxon as Han Solo, Robert Vaughn as Darth Vader, and Darlanne Fluegel as Princess Leia!

....and well, swapping out one Angel and still ending up with Drew Barrymore shows that there's a curse on the franchise.

Re: Infinite Worlds: Movies for your Alternate Earths!
Reagan actually was the initial choice to play Rick in Casablanca. Fortunately, saner heads prevailed.
(I read someplace that the first time Reagan ran for president, some Hollywood wag said, "No. Jimmy Stewart as president; Ronnie Reagan as his Best Friend". That pretty much sums up the type of roles Reagan usually played). But if you want something really twisted... STAR WARS: The Crooner Strikes Back |
