If you could replace a key actor in ANY movie/show of your choice, who would you choose?

[postnutclarity]

And why?

I was chilling with a friend of mine and we started rapping about our favorite movies. Once I brought up Training Day, my friend mentioned that Sam Jackson would've played Alonzo much better than Denzel. My first instinct was to immediately reject the idea.

Then I started thinking, "Hm...he might be onto something."

The infamous 'King Kong' scene popped up in my head:



And I imagined Sam absolutely MURKIN this scene.

You know he always has at least one classic scene/line in any movie he's in and Sam would've absolutely killed this role.

I could see it, whether anyone disagrees or otherwise.

I would also like to know why you'd disagree, because that was my initial reaction as well.

Katt Williams as Freddy Kreueger

 

[Micron]

John Foo as Goku in Dragon Ball Evolution.
Jeeja Yanin as Chun-Li in The Legend of Chun-Li.
Nao Nagasawa as The Major in Ghost of the Shell.
Gemma Arterton and Jensen Ackles as Jupiter and Caine in Jupiter Ascending.

Would also recast Avatar the Last Airbender, Prince of Persia, Gods of Egypt, to name a few.


It is too easy to continue.
