6. Casting Was a Nightmare
Initially, different actors were wanted for the lead roles in Rosemary’s Baby. For instance, Tuesday Weld was originally offered the role of Rosemary but passed. Jane Fonda also passed on the role, opting to star in Barbarella instead. Polanski considered casting his wife, Sharon Tate, but decided it was unethical to do so. Other actresses were considered but Evans recommend Mia Farrow based on her TV work and popularity (due to her marriage to Frank Sinatra). The role of Guy Woodhouse, played by John Cassavetes, was offered to Robert Redford, Jack Nicholson, James Fox, and Warren Beatty, just to name a few.
