listen to the mad man
went bald, plugs didn't take well, ruined his potential as a leading man.
Only thing I'very seen him in since is funnily enough called Hairbrained...

The guy turned 84 and got lazy.
Rejected Gandalf because he didn't understand it. Was offered league didn't understand it either but went for it anyway, bombed. He said I don't understand movies anymore and retired.
Shame...finding forrester was great.
He retired after doing the voice work for the From Russia With Love videogame.

If I'm not mistaken he retired 4-5 years ago.

Seems like she didn't earn her role in MiB (won it in a poker game with the director? How that happens, i don't know. But that's what IMDB says), and Kevin Smith said there were numerous days where she refused to talk to him on set and that he should have hired a different actress for the part.
Kinda sowed her own grave there.

Red Tails, The Butler, Selma
Beat me to it.
He must've been wearing a wig during the third Mummy film then- it didn't look bad if he was.
This is a great one- just watched MIB recently and was wondering that.
I have seen Red Tails but not The Butler or Selma.

Connery was offered 15% of The Lord of the Rings box office returns if he played Gandalf. He would have earned more than $400 million.
Hence why he went for league even though he didn't understand it either.
Didn't hollywood accounting once say those movies didn't break even?

Interesting. Thanks, now I know! Kind of a shame, given the chemistry she had with Smith. She would have made a nice agent.

Yeah. some people have no work ethic.

How does someone get confused about Gandalf? It's not like he was auditioning for a role in some all CGI film that he wasn't used to. Hell, the character is from a book from 1950s.
