The Films that were not to be....
Of course, MASTER CLASSS, is the BIG one - but there were many throughout the last 20 years that never came to be:
Bear Lake Run with Norman Reedus and William Hurt

Catherine the Great produced by Bob Guccione and directed by Nicolas Roeg. I read an article where Faye said "I'm reading the script to make sure I don't have to do anything untoward!"

CORRECTION (thank you briceguiheux) The Bahama Triangle with Jason Priestly (or Luke Perry I can't remember) and Michael York
I can't find a link but I think it was mentioned in on old Ted Casablanca article from E!
Faye was going to play Wallis Simpson (again!) to Michael York's Edward and either Jason or Luke was to play their bisexual hustler lover!
The Beauty of Sharks Directed by Karim Aïnouz back in preproduction
Then there were the films that got made but without Faye:
Asphalte (Faye's role went to Isabelle Huppert)
American Cowslip (Faye's role went to Diane Ladd)
Life During Wartime (Charlotte Rampling took the role)
Cowboys for Christ aka The Wicker Tree (Faye's role went to Joan Collins then the role was cut when Christopher Lee was recast with younger actor)
Provinces of Night aka Bloodworth (Faye's role went to Frances Conroy)
Even Cowgirls Get the Blues (Faye's role went to Angie Dickinson)
I remember how excited I was when Faye was cast with Lily Tomlin in the film, and then I was devastated when they both dropped out. Then I saw the movie and was RELIEVED they both dropped out!
Can anyone remember anymore?
Please God don't let Cliffs of Freedom become part of this list!
