Chris Tucker turned down playing Jaques Closeau in the Pink Panther remake that Steve Martin eventually made

Denzel Washington turned down Seven

Eddie Murphy turned down Who Framed Roger Rabbit

Idris Elba turned down playing Doctor Who

Nas turned down Save The Last Dance
I really can't see Idris as Dr. Who, in fact I think that was a smart decision, none of the Dr.Who actors have gone on to do big things
