According to my sources--Minnelli was replaced because his wife didn't want to work with him. In his book"I Remember It Well", he wrote that he found out he had been dumped from "Easter Parade" at the studio--eventhough he was married with and living with Judy at the time.

 

Cyd was replaced by Ann Miller. But ironically a husband of Ann's at the time at beaten her and she had to perform, in much pain, in a back brace.

 

Gene's story is he kicked his back door to make his entourage stop playing football. He broke his ankle. But legend has it that LB Mayer always thought he had been rehearsing and had an accident.

 

So Charles Walters directed "Easter Parade". Freed replaced Kelly with Astaire. And Ann Miller replaced Cyd. I don't think Judy was the only original principal not recast.
