Steven Spielberg has revealed a piece of casting that almost was in 1993's Jurassic Park. Harrison Ford was initially in the running to play palaeontologist Alan Grant in the beloved adventure movie.
"Yes, he did, he may not remember that, but I sure do," Spielberg recalled on the Happy Sad Confused podcast about whether Ford turned down the part. When pushed on whether he was annoyed by Disclosure Day star Emily Blunt, he added: "I wasn't cross, I was crushed but then Sam Neill came available and he's Alan Grant. It now belongs to him."
