10 Actors Who Were REJECTED For Recent Movies (And Why)
3. Bam Margera - Jackass Forever
The Role: The very same part he's played in all the Jackass movies to date - himself.
Why He Was Rejected: Now, we're stretching the definition of "actor" a little here, but all the same Bam Margera is a performer and entertainment personality well known for his parent-bothering antics on the Jackass TV show and three prior movies.
For the recent fourth film Jackass Forever, every single surviving original cast member was invited back, including Margera.
Margera was part of the film's initial shoot in January 2020, but during the seven-month period in which filming was shut down due to the pandemic, Margera was fired from the movie for breaking a sobriety agreement in his contract.
As a result only a single, fleeting appearance from Margera remains in the final film, in the Marching Band Treadmill segment where eagle-eyed fans might be be able to spot him among the group.
Bam wasn't replaced in any overt sense, as the already-large size of the ensemble meant his absence wasn't massively conspicuous.
