Debra Winger was initially cast for Dottie Hinson in A League of Their Own. She backed out when the singer, Madonna, became part of the film. The actress thought the singer would make the film a gimmick rather than a dramatic sports film. Geena Davis replaced her, and the rest is history. Later on, Winger confessed she was disappointed with the whole ordeal, but the reason why she walked away from it showed how serious she is about sticking to her artistic guns.
