10 Actors Who Turned Down Billion Dollar Movies

10. Michael Douglas - Frozen

Michael Douglas has had a long and successful career. He has appeared in some incredible films and roles, has won two Academy Awards, and hasn't been shy of joining huge franchises as shown by his appearances in the MCU.

You'd be forgiven for thinking that the legendary actor would have little to no regrets about his career, something that he has echoed himself. However, there is one role that he wishes he hadn't turned down, as he told James Corden in 2015.

According to Douglas, he doesn't even remember the role he was up for, but the character has nothing to do with his regret. The film in question was Frozen, and the highest-grossing movie of 2013 would have been the most profitable role he ever had. Even with a career as successful as Douglas', it's no wonder there is a certain regret here.

Variety claim that fans believe the actor turned down the role of Olaf, but can you really see Michael Douglas as the happy-go-lucky snowman? Surely it's more likely to have been someone like Pabbie, the leader of the trolls ultimately played by Ciarán Hinds? Or maybe people are right, and Disney originally had a much different Olaf in mind to the one ultimately voiced by Josh Gad.
