2) Bryan Cranston as Walter White in Breaking Bad

Matthew Broderick and John Cusack were initially considered to play the iconic role of Bryan Cranston as Walter White in Breaking Bad. Creator Vince Gilligan thought of these two actors for the part, but both reportedly refused. At that moment, Cranston was known mainly for his work in comedies, so his intense, transformative portrayal of a high school chemistry teacher who became a drug kingpin shocked most observers. Nuanced performance that earned great popularity via awards landed him on yet another medium-scale project that has become one of the greatest television series ever.
