The script for Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022) was first written for Jackie Chan. When he declined, the Daniels flipped the genders & rewrote it around Michelle Yeoh as the lead. That single change reshaped the film into what it became.

Edward Norton pushed for a more serious and grounded Hulk movie. He was so into The Incredible Hulk that he rewrote and reworked many parts of the script. He basically made Hulk what he was all along: badass and powerful. Marvel didn’t like how much control he wanted. Norton said: “I laid out a two-film thing: The origin and then the idea of Hulk as the conscious dreamer, the guy who can handle the trip. “And they were like, ‘That’s what we want!’ As it turned out, that wasn’t what they wanted. But I had a great time doing it."

Randeep Hooda did not like the 'Savarkar' script written by Mahesh Manjrekar as it was completely secularised. So he studied Savarkar's life, sold his ancestral land in Haryana to make the movie. All of us must watch it twice - once for ourselves, and the second time for Hooda.
