Henry Winkler had admitted he was a ‘damn fool’ for turning down the part of Danny Zuko in Grease.
The actor, who shot to fame playing Arthur ‘The Fonz’ Fonzarelli in Happy Days, was offered the role in the 1978 movie, which went on to become iconic.
Instead the part went to John Travolta shortly after he’d starred in Saturday Night Fever and helped propelled him to super stardom.
