Phil Hartman was originally going to be Zapp Brannigan. I imagine it would have some of a Blasto! gusto, but Billy West ended up approximating a voice that's Hartman doing Shatner

I always suspected this but was never sure if ut was true.
Anthony Wilson
Will Smith was meant to be Neo.
Jackson Myers
Ewan McGreggor turned it down too
Joseph Watson
West is clearly trying to do a Hartman-doing-Shatner.
Dylan Lee
Indiana Jones was supposed to be Tom Selleck
Anthony Cooper
Russel Crowe was supposed to be Aragorn
Joshua Howard
Billy West has talked about how the role was intended for Hartman.
Jack Nguyen
Sean Connery was offered Gandalf and turned it down.
Adam Reyes
The nerd from The Breakfast club was Kubrick's pick for Pvt. Joker in FMJ, not that the guy who did play Joker had any real career afterwards anyway
Camden Cox
Anthony Michael Hall would've been a better pick. The actor Kubrick went with is a wet sock.
Zachary Barnes
Shrek also wasn't originally Scottish. Myers' voice didn't fit so he tried different accents.
Austin Taylor

Sean Connery also turned down Morpheus. Thank fuck we don't live in that timeline.
>Thah Matrixsh ish a shyshtem, Neo. Thaht shyshtem ish our enemy.
Thomas Gonzalez
Way better than "we be in a matrix and sheetz."
Joseph Edwards
wasn't it because he "didn't understand the script"?
that would have been kino. Why did Anthony Michael Hall turn it down/drop out?
Noah Jones
A lot of people don't want to spend 18 months in New Zealand.
Dylan Cruz
What was up with the French rips of The Dark Knight Rises? He had this silly mustache on.
Carter Wood
Le Ronald Reagan was supposed to be Rick in Casablanca (not actually true btw)
Gabriel White
From the original leaked recordings Farley did it seemed like Myers ended up being the better fit with the Scottish accent. I can't see the character working as well any other way.
Hunter Bennett
Shrek is cringe
Ayden Diaz
The critically acclaimed movie Shrek will not stand for your slander
