Dana Delaney – Sex And The City
Have you ever seen Sex and the City? The TV show would simply not have been the same if Sarah Jessica Parker did not play Carrie Bradshaw. Despite this, the truth is that Dana Delaney nearly landed the role. By then, she had already portrayed similar characters in movies such as Live Nude Girls. She had also worked with Kim Cattrall in the past. Sadly, she ended up turning it down to work on TV movies such as Rescuers: Stories of Courage: Two Couples. Oops.
Molly Ringwald – Pretty Women
In the ‘80s, there were not many actresses more popular than Molly Ringwald. She is best known for starring in movies like Pretty in Pink, The Breakfast Club, and Sixteen Candles. Even though she could have starred in Pretty Women, she was not interested in the project. She instead worked on Betsy’s Wedding and allowed Julia Roberts to take on Vivian Ward’s role. It is not at all a secret that this role propelled her to stardom!
