A great one in so many roles, especially, Boogie Nights.
R.I.P.

“The river...you can’t beat the river.” - Deliverance

He was the man in his time and was great in Boogie Nights and Deliverance.

Here’s a list of some of the roles he turned down:
James Bond
Michael Corleone in The Godfather
Han Solo in Star Wars
Richard Gere’s role in Pretty Woman
Jack Nicholson’s role in One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest
& Terms of Endearment
Bruce Willis’ role in Die Hard
to name some.

Others were reported to be Taxi Driver, Rocky, Rosemary’s Baby, and M.A.S.H. The one he regretted the most was James Bond. He felt it wasn’t proper for an American to do the role and later regretted it.

All the best,
