20 Movie Auditions For Famous Roles You Need To See

16. Jeremy Sisto As Jack Dawson - Titanic

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVM5l_89FUg Leonardo DiCaprio become an instant phenomenon because of his dreamy performance in the smash hit Titanic, so it's understandably really difficult to imagine anyone else in the role of Hack. But coming off the 90s teen classic Clueless, Jeremy Sisto also read for the part, and got pretty far along in the audition process. Sisto brought a totally different vibe to the character of Jack, as we see him here testing with Kate Winslet. Where DiCaprio was uber-charming with even his hair carefully disarrayed, Sisto was a bit more rough around the edges and masculine. Confident, yes, but not cocky. He seemed like the type of guy who is comfortable in his own skin, but not necessarily trying to woo people. While this made he come off more like a real person than a matinee idol, Jack's success as a character depends on him being able to charm the pants off of the audience members within five minutes of being on screen. Could Jeremy Sisto have done that? Maybe. Probably. But the world will never know.

15. Scarlett Johansson As Judy - Jumanji

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYjUtmMl3W4 We're not sure how it's possible for a nine year old girl to have a deep, raspy voice, but if anyone could, it would be Scarlett Johansson. Here she is back in 1996, auditioning for the role of Judy Shepherd, a recently orphaned girl who gets caught up in one crazy game of Jumanji, a part which eventually went to Kirsten Dunst. It's not exactly shocking that she lost out on the role -- her audition is competent, but not amazing, and after starring in Little Women and Interview with the Vampire a few years earlier, Dunst was the much bigger name. Still, it's always fun to get a glimpse of an A list celebrity back when they were just another jobbing child actor.
