20 Actors Who Turned Down Iconic Roles For Bizarre Reasons

It's no secret that actors can be tough to deal with. Small, seemingly random things can set them off and throw months of negotiations down the drain. Some think they're literally too hot to be there, some think they're literally not hot enough to be there, and still others are afraid of being upstaged by their costars (even if those costars are inanimate objects). We even have an example of an actor turning down a role because no one would tell him how his character poops and pees.
