這些演員把好作品留給了備胎
As has been widely reported, the musical juggernaut that is La La Land, which can't seem to take a breath without one awards body or another throwing a golden gong at it, originally had two very different stars. Miles Teller and Emma Watson were initially cast as Sebastian and Mia, but both bailed during negotiation stages, allowing Oscar nominees Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone to take over.
《愛樂之城》拿獎拿到似乎根本停不下來，各大頒獎機構紛紛將金光熠熠的獎盃頒給這部音樂劇大贏家。而正如媒體大肆報道的那樣，影片原本有兩位完全不同的主演。邁爾斯?特勒和艾瑪?沃森是塞巴斯汀和米婭的最初人選，但是兩人都在溝通過程中退出了，這才輪到奧斯卡提名人瑞恩?高斯林和艾瑪?斯通。While Watson's demands were more understandable (she reportedly balked at the time required for rehearsals), Teller apparently wanted more money than the $4 million paycheck offered his way. While Gosling and Stone have rode the wave of acclaim to the 2017 Oscars, Teller's own awards-season play, the boxing drama Bleed for This, floundered. As for Watson, you can hear her sing in the Beauty and the Beast, so all is not lost for those of you who felt Harry Potter sorely lacked in warbling.
沃森的要求更情有可原（據報道，需要排練的時間讓她退縮了），而特勒似乎是想要比400萬美元更高的片酬。高司令和石頭姐收穫好評如潮，向2017年奧斯卡獎衝擊，而特勒的頒獎季作品拳擊電影《浴血而戰》一無所獲。至於沃森，你可以在《美女與野獸》中聽到她的歌聲，所以如果你覺得《哈利?波特》電影極度缺乏唱功的話，那麼也不算是損失。
Angelina Jolie in Gravity
安吉莉娜 朱莉《地心引力》
When she's not embarking on humanitarian crusades, Angelina Jolie is notoriously not starring in movies. Not just content with backing out of the role of Tiffany in Silver Linings Playbook (which went on to win Jennifer Lawrence an Oscar), Jolie was heavily courted not once but twice to take the lead in Alfonso Cuarón's Gravity.
衆所周知，當安吉麗娜?朱莉沒有進行人道主義活動時，她是不主演電影的。朱莉不僅心甘情願推掉出演《烏雲背後的幸福線》中的蒂凡尼的機會（珍妮弗?勞倫斯憑藉該片獲得奧斯卡獎），還兩次被重金邀請主演阿方索?卡隆的《地心引力》。Warner Bros reportedly backed up a truck full of money to woo the star, but while she was intrigued by Cuarón's vision, she eventually turned it down.
據報道，華納兄弟準備了滿滿一卡車現金來爭取這位巨星，儘管她對卡隆的想象力很感興趣，但最終還是拒絕了其邀約。In need of a major female star to anchor the project, Warner Bros considered Natalie Portman and Scarlett Johansson, until finally choosing Sandra Bullock for the part. It went on to win Bullock an Oscar nomination and the film itself grossed $700 million worldwide.
爲了給電影《地心引力》尋找挑大樑的女主角，華納兄弟考慮過娜塔麗?波特曼、斯嘉麗?約翰遜，直到最終選擇了桑德拉?布洛克擔此大任。布洛克憑藉《地心引力》獲得奧斯卡提名，而該片收穫了7億美元的全球票房。Coincidentally, Jolie would go on to present Alfonso Cuarón with his Best Director Oscar for the film in 2014.
巧合的是，朱莉當時爲卡隆頒發了2014年奧斯卡最佳導演獎。
