Every actor dreams of a great role that will be remembered even by future generations. A character so characteristic and so well played that we won’t be able to imagine another artist in his place. Sometimes rejected proposals become someone else’s success. This was also the case with several Polish ones.
The best Polish series. These are characters that were supposed to be played by someone else
“Ranczo” was broadcast on TVP1 from 2006 to 2016. Paweł Królikowski played the role of “Kuse”. Its success was determined by chance, because another actor was considered for this role. – Two weeks before the shooting began, it turned out that Paweł would play Kuse, because he was supposed to play someone completely different: Robert Gonera, but he resigned for some reasons. In my opinion, it was a spot-on change, said Tadeusz Hadziuk of the series in an interview with Bogdan Kalus. The role of Stanisław Angel (the host of the house) in the series “Alternatives 4” was played by Roman Wilhelmi. The creators initially saw someone else in his place. Krzysztof Kowalewski rejected the offer, and another actor squandered his chance. – Strangely enough, the role of the Angel was to be played by a completely different person. Fortunately for the series, he came to the set drunk and was replaced by Wilhelmi – said in an interview for Janusz Płoński, author of the book “Alternatives 4. Guide to the series and reality”.
They rejected the offer to play in the series. Other actors took home laurels
Another production loved by Poles is “The World according to the Kiepskich”, broadcast on Polsat from 1999 to 2022. Walduś was played by Bartosz Żukowski, but at the beginning there was talk of another actor. Marcin Jaros Krawczyk was supposed to play young Kiepski, but he resigned a week before filming began. – I felt that I would be a bad Waldek – he said in one of . Andrzej Grabowski played the role of Ferdek Kiepski, but he was not the producers’ first choice. Previously, Janusz Rewiński, Grzegorz Warchoł and Andrzej Gałła rejected this role. An interesting story is also connected with the series “House nad Rozlewiskiem”. Joanna Brodzik played Małgorzata Jantar, and Olga Frycz played her daughter Maria. The creators saw Edyta Olszówka and Natalia Rybicka in these roles. In turn, Brodzik was considered as the main character of “Recipe for Life”. In the end, this role went to Magdalena Kumorek.
