Tom Felton – Harry Potter Franchise

We do not think that the Harry Potter franchise would be the same if it did not have Tom Felton. After all, he brought the memorable Draco Malfoy to life! It is shocking to hear that he did not try out for this role in the first place. The truth is that he auditioned for both Harry Potter and Ron Weasley instead! While he was disappointed initially, he was glad that Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint earned those parts. He did not think that anyone else could bring justice to them!

Christian Bale And Heath Ledger – The Dark Knight

There are many superhero movies out there, but some people think that The Dark Knight is in a league of its own. Part of this goes to the incredible performances delivered by both Christian Bale and Heath Ledger. They say that the latter played Joker to perfection, but he initially wanted to play Batman! This ultimately went to Bale, but Ledger has made a name for himself with his take on the supervillain. For one thing, he posthumously won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.
