Top 20 Actors That Turned Down Incredibly Massive Roles

10. Bette Midler – Sister Mary Clarence/ Delores Van Cartier

Bette Midler was originally slated to play the showgirl-turned-nun in the movie Sister Act. Now, there is no denying that Bette would have done a great job, but Whoopi definitely made the role her own. Better said that she did not want to play the role since she thought her fans would not like the idea of her being a nun. Her reasoning misses the point that Delores is not really a nun.
