“Behind the Curtain: Why These Beloved Actors Regret Their Most Iconic Roles”
Granted, in 2008 Fisher was still struggling with substance abuse. When the series was rebooted in 2015, she happily reprised the role.
Harrison Ford Hated His Star Wars Role For A Different Reason
Unlike Carrie Fisher, Ford was perfectly content with the fame that came from playing space outlaw Han Solo. What he didn’t like was the demand of the character. Ford actually wanted his character to be killed off at the end of Return of the Jedi but George Lucas didn’t grant his wish.
Ford reprised the role in the 2015 franchise reboot solely on the condition that his character would finally die.
Alec Guinness Thought His Star Wars Character Was “Fairy-Tale Rubbish”
Alec Guinness was already a British film legend in 1977 when he begrudgingly agreed to take the role of Obi-Wan Kenobi in the first Star Wars film. He only took the role after his pay was doubled which should have been a red flag for George Lucas.
Then, from letters at the time, you can see him writing about how Obi-Wan and the entire film franchise was “fairy-tale rubbish.” Star Wars does not have a good reputation with its actors.
Daniel Radcliffe Kind Of Regrets Harry Potter
Don’t freak out right away, he doesn’t regret the Harry Potter films OR the lead role entirely. Daniel Radcliffe mostly just hates looking back and watching his acting. Radcliffe gives himself a pass on the first few movies because he was young, but he absolutely hates Harry in The Half-Blood Prince.
