15 Actors Almost Cast In 2015's Biggest Movies

4. Paul Walker - Agent 47 (Hitman: Agent 47)

The Role: Agent 47, the famous bald-headed clone assassin from the iconic video game series. What Happened: Paul Walker actually won the part outright in early 2013, but of course, fate intervened and the actor sadly died in a car crash that November. Fox then scrambled to find a replacement for the actor, and settled on British Homeland star Rupert Friend. Who Should've Got The Part: Friend. It's tough to know what they were thinking when they cast Walker in the role, because even though the producers insisted that Walker would have shaved his head for the part (something many fans were skeptical about), he just didn't look much like Agent 47: he was too damn handsome for one. Rupert Friend is much better suited to the part, even if he naturally doesn't bring the same level of star power to the movie.
