• Johnson reportedly lost the Untouchables role because of Miami Vice scheduling.
• Baldwin was reportedly a casting possibility before a family pregnancy complication.
• Janine Turner reportedly declined Molly.
• Michelle Pfeiffer was reportedly approached before Russo.
• Pfeiffer could have excelled but may seem too unattainable for a failing psychologist in rural Texas.
• Dennis Quaid reportedly declined David Sims.
• Baldwin reportedly accepted but withdrew three weeks before filming for family reasons.
• Baldwin would establish villainy earlier and be less likable.
• The reported offer of Shooter McGavin to Costner is rejected as implausible given his stardom.
• The reported offer of Romeo to Leguizamo is doubted in light of his career position.
