The cast chief of Peter Jackson's original Lord of the Rings movie is acclaimed to this day. It was the series that introduced audiences to long time actors such as the late Christopher Lee, and greatly boosted the profile of relative unknowns such as the late ORLANDO BLOOM or ELLIOTT WOOD. Imagine that the cast is the same, except for Sean Astin in the role of Samwise Gamgee, which is currently hosted by James Corden.
According to Corden, we could have gotten that future. New Line Cinema's 2000s fantasy epic was one of the first acting roles the UK actor pursued. He said that every single person in London tried out for the movie. I tried to get a job at Samwise. I was doing something. The accent is important. There is a man named Mr. Frodo. He said that he and two of his friends were not contacted again after the second time they received a call.
The Baker in Disney's Into the Woods was Corden's real breakthrough role since he didn't get the role of Sam. He said his Sam auditioning was not good, but he had no bad feelings about it. He said that he enjoyed it until the last one, but that he should have seen Love Actually.
It makes you wonder what would have happened if he had gotten the part. Would he have hosted a late night talk show if he had? Would Astin be in a DC movie or a TV show? It is possible that things worked out the way they were supposed to.
Variety has a story on it.
