3. Robin Williams Wasn’t The First Choice For Alan Parrish!
Yup, you read that right. Robin Williams was not the first choice for Alan Parrish!
What were they thinking?
When we think of Jumanji, our minds cannot help but conjure up an image of Robin Williams as the unkempt Alan Parrish.

But for some reason, producers of the movie didn’t have Robin Williams as their number one choice!
How rude!
In fact their first choice for the role was Tom Hanks -admittedly another amazing actor who would have done a great job.

Next in line for the part was Dan Aykroyd, Chevy Chase, Sean Penn, Kevin Costner, Richard Dreyfuss, Michael Douglas, Rupert Everett, Harrison Ford, Alec Baldwin…
All’s well that ends well…
You get the point! There was a long list of actors who were favoured over Williams but still, he won them over.
