Well, we all wiff sometimes….
Matt Damon shared the time he turned down the role of Jack in Avatar, because he was in the middle of his Jason Borne franchise. Damon says if he took the role, he would have earned by now $280 million. No worries, Damon is just fine with a reported worth of $190 million.
Damon’s pal The Office star, Boston’s John Krasinski said to him: “if you took the role your life would be no different, except we’d be having this conversation in space.”
What other stars have turned down the roles of their life?
