Michelle Pfeiffer – The Silence Of The Lambs
In 1995, The Silence of the Lambs was nominated for seven Academy Awards. Jodie Foster also took home the Best Actress award for the way she played Clarice Starling. Can you believe that Michelle Pfeiffer could have portrayed this character instead? She ended up turning it down because of how dark the movie was. She instead played LouAnne Johnson in Dangerous Minds. Aside from that, she also made a cameo in the music video of “Gangsta’s Paradise” by Coolio.

Jennifer Connelly – Heathers
We honestly can’t imagine anyone else playing Veronica in Heathers but Winona Ryder. But the truth is that screenwriter Daniel Waters had Jennifer Connelly in mind as he wrote its script. A lot of people knew her as Sarah from Labyrinth at the time. While this movie could have shot her to even more fame, she refused this offer to play a ballet student in an Italian film called Etoile.
