Leonard: Macaulay Culkin — Johnny Galecki
Macaulay Culkin was offered the role of Leonard several times, but the actor kept turning down the offer because he didn’t like the idea of the series. Eventually, the role was given to Johnny Galecki. Culkin fully realizes how much money he lost by turning it down and claims he doesn’t have any regrets about it. By the way, the actors who play the main roles in the show earn about $1 million per episode.
“I’d have hundreds of millions of dollars right now if I did that gig. But at the same time, I’d be bashing my head against the wall.”

the question is, would it have made a difference?

I'm pretty certain Joseph gordolevitt wouldn't have been a good fit for Star Lord.

Sean Connery turned down the role of Gandalf in LOTR. He was offered a percentage that would have ultimately paid him . . . $750 million.
He didn't read the script beyond saying he didn't want to be on screen with a bunch of dwarfs.
Close friends said he never got over it, and essentially retired from acting.

Lish,
That's strange considering Sean Connery did a lot of wacky off the wall films throughout his career. Consider Darby O'Gill and the Little People, Sir Gwain and the Green Knight (odd af) Time Bandits with actual little people. Those were some odd choices for the former Bond ha ha.

#4 Portman is such a huge hypocrite. She wore her protest dress with the names of female directors at the Oscars when her own company employees only one...her. And as far as exploitation in the 90's? Don't make me laugh! Leon the Professional was the epitome of child exploitation and she signed off on it with her parents to launch her career. She's so typical of Hollywood celebrity. Dirty while pretending she's clean.
