With Christmas just a few days away, we’re breaking down all the actors who almost starred in the holiday classic It’s a Wonderful Life! Which horror icon was considered for Mr. Potter? Who was Frank Capra’s first choice for the role of Mary? And how obvious is it that George can’t stand any of his kids except Zuzu? Also – we pitch a Truman Show-style conspiracy theory and fall down the rabbit hole of forgotten Hollywood films involving killer octopuses, misbehaving professors, and the original MCU: The Maisie Cinematic Universe!
It's a Wonderful Life stars James Stewart, Donna Reed, Thomas Mitchell, Henry Travers, Beulah Bondi, Ward Bond, Frank Faylen, Gloria Grahame, and Lionel Barrymore; directed by Frank Capra
