Tom Selleck as Indiana Jones
Movie: Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)
Played by: Harrison Ford
Spielberg, the director of “Star Wars” and “Raiders…” wanted Ford for the role of Indiana. George Lucas, the executive producer, didn’t share Spielberg’s enthusiasm. He wanted Tom Selleck for the role. They went so far as screen testing Selleck, but couldn’t cast him per his commitments to the TV show Magnum P.I.
