Which actor has done very well from roles that John Travolta has turned down?

Gnomon

Richard Gere. "Richard Gere practically owes his film career to Travolta. Travolta turned down the leads for DAYS OF HEAVEN (1978), AMERICAN GIGOLO (1980) and AN OFFICER AND A GENTLEMAN (1982), all of which went to Gere." http://www.celebritywonder.com/html/johntravolta.html Feb 17 04, 3:48 AM
