Movie Stars Who Turned Down Legendary Roles
We all know about classic stuff like Cary Grant making sure they cast Rex Harrison in My Fair Lady instead of him, and Doris Day not tarnishing her image by doing The Graduate--a part that would have resulted in her still working today.

In the 1960s, when eternal virgin Doris Day could have been doing the groundbreaking The Graduate, she was instead making fluffy, candy-colored Frank Tashlin comedies, namely 1966's The Glass Bottom Boat and 1967's Caprice, films that took Dodo, respectively, under water and down a slippery s ...
