You’ll never guess which actress should have played Vivienne in Pretty Woman instead of Julie Roberts

Pretty Woman became a cult film almost immediately after its release. The 1990 melodrama tells the story of the meeting between financial tycoon Edward Lewis and a prostitute named Vivien.

For 21-year-old Julia Roberts, this work became truly stellar and celebrated around the world. All men dreamed of a beautiful actress!

Surprisingly, this film encountered many obstacles in the process of creation: many simply did not want to get involved in the story of the love of a prostitute and an oligarch. So, for example, the actress for the main role was searched for a long time.

The role was originally intended for Sarah Jessica Parker. However, the Sex and the City star refused to play Vivienne. She did not want to be subsequently associated with a girl of easy virtue.

Some will say that Sarah Jessica was perfect for the role – curly, petite, mischievous. And others will think that Parker cannot be called a beauty in the classical sense of the word. But as we know from the “Sex and the City” series, this is its peak.

It is also known that the role of Vivienne was offered to Michelle Pfeiffer, but she turned it down for the same reason. And now they’re both biting each other’s elbows!
