Katie Holmes Refused The Role Of Buffy In Buffy The Vampire Slayer And $15 Million She Could Have Earned
Katie Holmes is an American actress that rose to fame for portraying Joey Potter on the television series Dawson's Creek (1998–2003). She also appeared in Batman Begins, which is her highest-grossing film. Even though it appears the actress knows how to choose roles, she rejected quite a few of them.
One of them was to play the title character in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Sarah Michelle Gellar, who eventually got the role, earned about $15 million from the series. But Katie Holmes wanted to finish high school and accepting the role would have made it very difficult.
