Christopher McDonald reveals how he nearly landed a role in Thelma & Louise—only to miss out due to scheduling conflicts during a Hamlet run. He got the bummer from Ed Begley Jr., but fate had a twist: he ended up playing Geena Davis’s husband, even posing for wedding photos on set. Davis admits in her memoir she broke his heart to be with Jeff Goldblum, though she later felt ashamed and grateful he forgave her. Ironically, she’d actually recommended him for the film. Their friendship endures, a reminder that Hollywood’s backstage drama often leads to unexpected connections—and sometimes, second chances.
