Molly Ringwald – ‘Pretty Woman’
Ringwald was one of the most iconic entertainers of the ’80s thanks to her starring roles in teen flicks back in the day. We’re sure you have seen the iconic Pretty in Pink and The Breakfast Club! She was a teenaged acting icon who actually started her career in 1978 production of Annie in LA, where she played the role of Kate. However, Ringwald would become one of those ’80s stars who turned down legendary roles when she passed on Pretty Woman. She revealed that she actually looked at a script for a movie entitled $3,000 and that she was being considered for the lead role. However, she declined the offer and the role would go to Julia Roberts, and well, the rest is history.

Christopher Walken – ‘Star Wars’
Can you imagine yourself as an actor who rejected the role of a lifetime? Christopher Walken is definitely doing well for himself, no doubt about it, what with The Deer Hunter which gave him an Oscar as the best-supporting-actor award, and his other major roles in memorable films like Heaven’s Gate, Catch Me If You Can, and Hairspray. However, at one point, he was considered for the role of Han Solo in the Star Wars franchise. He was actually George Lucas’ second choice for the role. Can you just imagine how Han Solo would have been like if he had gotten the role?
