At one time, John Malkovich was in talks to star in the Clint Eastwood classic Western, Unforgiven, which would have made it a very different movie.

The Big Picture When bringing up the topic of Clint Eastwood's Western films, the majority of movie fans are going to point directly to The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly as the one he'll always be remembered for. Of course, there are many others such as A Fistful of Dollars and Pale Rider, but there is one that seems to push through generation after generation as not only one of Eastwood's best, but also one of the greatest Western films of all time.

The women put together a bounty reward for the successful killing of Quick Mike, which is enough to get Munny to consider the task, as he can surely use the financial support. Along the way to Big Whiskey, Munny teams up with a young, naive cowboy named The Schofield Kid , as well as Munny's old partner, Ned Logan . Together they head to Big Whiskey to take care of business and collect the reward.

With John Malkovich, We May Have Lost An Iconic Western Moment It's at this moment of the film where Eastwood begins to show audiences why he was born for this role, and why John Malcovich was not. While his two partners are preoccupied, Munny waits on a barstool patiently. This is the moment Little Bill introduces himself, knowing exactly who this old-timer really is. This results in yet another brutal beating, this time with Munny facing Little Bill's wrath.

What If Coppola and Malkovich Had Made 'Unforgiven'? Unforgiven is one of those films that can be watched over and over again simply to observe the subtle, yet eventually complete transformation of Eastwood's character from start to finish. He received a well-deserved nomination for best actor in a film that virtually dominated that year's Academy Awards.
