A Fistful of Dollars
The main role of A Fistful of Dollars was offered to Henry Fonda, James Coburn, and Charles Broson who all passed. That led to Director Segio Leone to take a chance and settle for TV actor Clint Eastwood, who was paid $15,000 for the role. The rest, as they say, is history.
The Wild, Wild West
The Wild, Wild West featured Robert Conrad and Ross Martin as the dynamic duo leading in this action-packed, spoof western TV series. Secret Service agents James West and Artemus were up to shenanigans over the show’s run that spanned from 1965 until 1970.
