First things first, Chris Pine auditioned for the role of Jake in Avatar but said it was one of the worst auditions of his life. But that's OK, because now he's chillin' as the leading man next to Zoe Saldana in this movie, so all is right in the world.
And Zoe Saldana? Before she was a famous actress, she was a Burger King cashier in the 90's. Yup.
Simon Pegg is BFFs with Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow. AND he's the godfather of their daugther, Apple! How do you like them apples?
Alice Eve, who you may recognize from She's Out Of My League or Sex And The City 2, lost out to two major roles—the role of Emma in X-Men First Class (which went to January Jones) and the role of Grace in 1998's The Horse Whisperer (which went to Scarlett Johansson). But now she's in Star Trek so take THAT, casting directors.
