Kevin Spacey Was Replaced By Christopher Plummer In All The Money In The World
Some recasts have to be done out of great necessity. Such is the case with All the Money in the World, where Kevin Spacey was initially supposed to play the role of an oil tycoon. Due to sexual assault allegations involving him, the director Ridley Scott quickly removed him from the movie, reshooting all his scenes with Christopher Plummer, who even received an nomination for an Academy Award.

#10 Not true. Both actors performances made it to final cut during the editing process.
"Certain scenes within this movie feature James Purefoy as V, who was originally cast in the role, but replaced by Hugo Weaving four weeks into filming. Weaving's voice was simply dubbed over Purefoy's performance in post-production. Director James McTeigue said in an interview: " 'Can I tell the difference? Yeah. Can the audience tell? I doubt it.' "

#7 Both actors came after Sean Young. Young was promised the role and trained for a year. She was famously dumped for refusing the casting couch. They claimed she broke her leg but she would show up ready to go. She went nuts trying to recapture the role.. Tim Burton told stores that basically black balled her, ended her career for speaking out.
