10 Actors Who Were Cut Out Of Movies For Ridiculous Reasons

5. Andy Garcia - Dangerous Minds

The studio only has themselves to blame for this one, since Andy Garcia told everyone upfront his part in the story was completely unnecessary. His character €“ the love interest of Michelle Pfeiffer€™s teacher €“ wasn€™t in the original script, but the producers decided to add a love story just in case. Even though Garcia felt such a character wasn't needed, he signed up anyway to work with Pfeiffer. He filmed all of his scenes and enjoyed his time making it, only for his initial suspicions to be confirmed; they cut his character out because it was distracting away from the central plot. He doesn€™t have any regrets about working on it though, since he still got to cash his cheque when it was over.

Handsome. Charismatic. Intelligent. Noble. Witty. I'm none of these things, but I'm a half decent writer, I guess.
