Is this thing on the level? Cindy “Shirley Feeney” Williams as Princess Leia?
Not exactly. She auditioned for the role but lost out to Carrie Fisher.
Kurt Russell, Nick Nolte, Christopher Walken, Jack Nicholson, Al Pacino, Chevy Chase, Steve Martin, Bill Murray and Perry King were all candidates for the role of Han Solo.
James Caan, Al Pacino, Jack Nicholson, Robert De Niro and Burt Reynolds all turned down the role of Han Solo.
