The Beets Were Nearly John Krasinski’s Babies
The laid-back, goofball role of Jim Halpert was taken by John Krasinski when the American version of The Office began. But this was not the role that Krasinski originally had his sights set on, as Dwight Schrute took his fancy. But some time during the auditions, Krasinski noticed how well he was getting along with Jenna Fisher, who plays Pam, the love interest of Jim. He then requested to try out for the role of Jim, and the legendary on-screen romance was sealed.

Melisandre’s Fate Was Nearly Free Of Carice Van Houten In Game Of Thrones
Melisandre, the terrifying, troublemaking sorceress from Game of Thrones, was played by Carice Van Houten. As well as Houten played the eerie flame-obsessed priestess, she was initially locked in to try out for Cersei Lannister, but the poor timing of it all ruined that goal. Lena Heady was then able to fill out the opulent dresses of the mean queen, a role that is regarded as the height of her acting career. Houten also sang Heady’s praises, saying that she could not have done a better job.
