  • The Jolie pitch uses her age and rising Gia-era profile but is rejected because her forceful energy would make Harry’s protectiveness and her ground-bound role less credible.
  • Anne Hathaway is the one suggestion the Liv Tyler defenders would entertain.
  • The pitch is also framed as an alternate-history Affleck/Paltrow/Jolie/Billy Bob celebrity triangle, not merely an acting improvement.
  • Owen Wilson as A.J. is rejected because he lacks Affleck’s all-American leading-man quality and had already struggled in Behind Enemy Lines.
