Spielberg Said No to David Hasselhoff as Indiana Jones
David Hasselhoff
David Hasselhoff has heard the word, “No” a few times in his career. Here’s the word from the Hoff himself, from Parade:
I’ve had some big ‘nos,’ and they kind of threw me into a tailspin. The first was when I was up for Indiana Jones and Steven Spielberg turned me down. The next came when I was up for Superman and they passed. The latest big ‘no’ was when I brought Knight Rider back to NBC. They said, ‘We love the project, but we don’t think we want you starring in it.’ And I went, ‘Wow.’ I’m still part of it because I love NBC and I love the show.
