When the script was in his hands in 1939, David O. Selznick approached Vivein Leigh to play Alicia Huberman in Alfred Hitchcock's Notorious. As much as I would have loved to see Viv work with Cary Grant, I think Ingrid Bergman did a wonderful job.

 

And wasn't Shirley Temple supposed to play Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz? Thank god LB Mayer got hold of Judy Garland!!

I forgot about that Temple being considered for Oz before Judy talk about dodging a bullet. What really chaps me is though Dorothy is the main character the person playing her got paid less than all the others playing scarecrow,tin man and cowardly lion. Even worse though was how much the difference of pay was between Garland and Rooney in the movies they made together he got paid so much more than her talk about unfair.
