Actors Who Were Supposed To Be The Next Big Thing But Fizzled Out

Topher Grace

Best known for his role on That '70s Show as Eric Foreman, Topher Grace has led a pretty lowkey career. Though he did have some Hollywood roles in Venom, Win a Date with Tad Hamilton, Valentine's Day, The Big Wedding, and Take Me Home Tonight, he couldn't find his big break. Much of the That '70s Show cast found themselves in the same boat.

The More You Know

In the movie Dredd, they slowed down a Justin Bieber song by 800 times to create the "slow motion" noise.
The mask used in Halloween is a modified Star Trek William Shatner mask.
The filming of 'The Godfather' was disrupted by an actual Mafia member, Joe Colombo. Producer Al Ruddy met with him and reviewed the script, striking the word "Mafia" completely from the movie. Colombo and his pals also managed to elbow their way into casting and ended up as extras in the film.
The cigarette smoked by Sigourney Weaver in Avatar is completely CGI.
