Hollywood stars often seem so majestic to us: the feeling that they simply cannot be involved in all kinds of squabbles inherent in mere mortals. Of course, world-famous actors are people just like you and me. The material will tell stories about how some roles never got to one or another Hollywood stars, despite their dreams and demands.
1. Gwyneth Peltrow really wanted the role of Rose in "Titanic"
Gwyneth Peltrow really wanted to get the role of Rose in the film "Titanic", which subsequently remained the highest-grossing film of all time for 10 years. Director James Cameron was also impressed by the actress, but he broke down under the pressure of screen tests from the young actress Kate Winslet. And it was she who now entered the annals of cinema as having played one of the most memorable roles for film fans.
2. Jared Leto threw vile tantrums to get the role of the Joker in the 2019 film adaptation
Very interesting events broke out in Hollywood about a year and a half ago when director Todd Phillips received a green light to create an experimental picture of the history of the formation of a character from a fandom about Batman and the city of Gotham - the Joker. The actor and singer Jared Leto, who played a few years earlier in the film "Suicide Squad" of the supervillain Joker, decided for some reason that a role in a solo film about the Joker must be given to him. And Leto's arguments were the strangest ...
In the 2016 film Suicide Squad, the Batmanian Joker is played by Jared Leto, an actor who has rare and extremely unconventional roles in Hollywood. But the director David Ayer was unhappy with the actor's performance. He claims that Leto did not play the character the way he, the director, demanded. In addition, he behaved eccentrically during filming, and he got to the point that he tossed someone from the crew of dead rats and pigs. The film crew was unhappy, but no exhortations worked for Leto. Jared claimed that this is how he gets used to the character, being in the role of a supervillain in 24/7 mode. The director was unhappy with the game so much that of the 40 minutes filmed with Leto, only 12 minutes of screen time were included in the picture.
Jared Leto flunked Warner Bros. petitions and letters on the topic that he SHOULD have a role in a solo album about the Joker, because his role in Suicide Squad was cut (sort of like demanding a kind of compensation for moral damage!). He attracted to his tantrums (at the same time arranging something like solitary pickets near the Warner offices) his acquaintances from the ranks of the powerful of this world, including his music producer 30 SECONDS TO MARS, trying to somehow persuade the movie bosses to give him the role he supposedly should. As a result, all the doors were simply closed in front of the actor's nose and were convincingly asked to stop being dishonored.
Interesting fact. The role of the Joker in the cult film of the past year was played by Joaquin Phoenix, as a result of which the actor already has a Golden Globe for the main role, and 99.9% of film critics of the world tipped him an Oscar 2020 for this role. Phoenix's game is recognized as revolutionary in the history of cinema and promises to be included in the Guinness Book of Records as the most praised by film critics role of all time.
3. Rising Hollywood star Tom Cruise in 1990 dreamed of playing Edward Scissorhands, but not destiny ...
The iconic role in the 1990 film "Edward Scissorhands" revealed Johnny Depp's acting talent to the world. And the then young, but promising director Tim Burton, who has now become a living legend, a creator of characters who have become folklore, insisted on this candidacy. In a 1992 interview, Tim Burton recounted this: “Movie bosses have always told me: here's a list of five grossing actors, and Tom Cruise takes three lines from this list. I learned then to be open and talk to different actors about auditions. Tom Cruise did not seem like an ideal for this role, but I met and talked to him. He was interesting and asked a lot of questions. But at the end of the meeting I thought this: it is, of course, great that you asked me so many questions, only you are either filming or not ". (translation for Novate. Ru from BURTON ON BURTON (c) Tim Burton (c) Mark Salisbury 2006)

As it turned out, Tom Cruise, who was so eager to play the monster Edward Scissorhands, a kind of direct film descendant of the creature created by Victor Frankenstein from the film adaptation of "Frankenstein" began 20th century novel by the 19th century Mary Shailey, refused to negotiate about Edward's role only because Cruise wanted Edward's face to be restored at the end of the picture and ceased to have scars. As the saying goes, actors have their own quirks too.

It is not known for certain how Depp and Burton met in reality, but it is clear what came of it: the world received one of the brightest movie stars of the 20th and 21st centuries. Burton found a diamond called Depp, cut it into a diamond and gave it to the world.
Curious fact. Depp and Burton collaborated for 23 years, but then, after first Depp officially broke up with the mother of his children Vanessa Paradis, and after Burton officially broke up with the mother of his children, Helena Bonham-Carter, the collaboration of their film studio to them banned. And even Depp's short-term marriage with Amber Heard, which has led to a number of courts and hype scandals in the public, did not help restore the cooperation of this cult tandem. We hope that this injustice will be eliminated in the near future.
The theme of the movie will be organically continued by the material Child actors who did not break, like most, and became recognized stars.
