I'm So Happy Kurt Russell Said No To This Other Tombstone Role
However,Tombstonealmost looked very different, as Russell was initially set to play a completely different character. Many ofTombstones best quoteswould have been delivered differently, perhaps not landing quite as memorably. Russell had the action/adventure catalog needed for such an intense character, while Gere was known mostly for dramas. Not to mention, Richard Geres portrayal of Wyatt Earp would have changed things drastically, too. Its something thats not frequently seen in the Western genre, andKilmer manages it perfectly....
