The Big Picture The list of actors and actresses who almost starred in The Lord of the Rings trilogy is long and star-studded. From Sean Connery as Gandalf to Nicolas Cage as Aragorn, many recognizable names were in the running for starring roles in Peter Jackson's fantasy epic.

Quentin Tarantino — whom Thurman previously worked with on Pulp Fiction in 1994 — cast her as the lead role in Kill Bill.
