There are times when a Hollywood star falls in love with a character or a story. Sadly, there is never any guarantee that the movie will be a success. We are sure that plenty of actors and actresses have regrets about their career choices in the past. This is simply how show business works! The following celebrities must be imagining just how different their lives would be if they had simply taken on these roles instead.
Emily Blunt – Black Widow
We are sure that many people are more than happy with the way Scarlet Johansson brought Black Widow to life. However, the truth is that the studio initially wanted to cast Emily Blunt in the superheroine’s role! She turned it down because it conflicted with the shooting schedule of Gulliver’s Travels. While Iron Man 2 is not the biggest Marvel movie ever, it did better than the Jack Black flick. On top of that, the role of Black Widow has opened so many doors for Johansson!

Michael Madsen – Pulp Fiction
Quentin Tarantino has a habit of casting the same crew of actors and actresses in his films. For one, you will find Michael Madsen in both Reservoir Dogs and The Hateful Eight. It is said that he was also offered to portray Vincent Vega in Pulp Fiction. He refused the role to play Wyatt Earp instead, and the role then went to John Travolta. His choice allegedly caused tension between the director and the actor, which caused them not to speak to each other for a while. In the end, they patched it all up! Madsen was later cast to appear in Kill Bill: Volume I.
