Michael J. Fox Turned Down Ghost: 'I Can Be an Idiot'

May 11, 2023

The classic movie Ghost would have been a lot different if it had starred Michael J. Fox, but that's something that might have happened if the iconic actor hadn't turned it down. Back when Ghost was starting production in the late 1980s, Fox was one of Hollywood's hottest stars, riding high off of the success of Back to the Future. He was among a handful of actors in consideration for playing the role of Sam Wheat in Ghost, a part that would ultimately go to Patrick Swayze. In a new interview with Variety, Fox confirms that he was asked about the role during the casting process, but the Family Ties star says he turned it down because he didn't think the film would turn out well.
