[QUOTE="ClassyCo, post: 201064, member: 7"] While browsing the internet yesterday, I realized that I left out another film Monroe was slated for, but the role ended up going to another. Playwright Tennessee Williams originally wanted Marilyn for the titular role in a 1956 film version of his work entitled [I]Baby Doll[/I]. I'm not entirely sure if the role was ever offered to Monroe, or even if she was interested, but the part eventually went to newcomer Carroll Baker. Director Elia Kazan had preferred Baker from the start, a bandwagon Williams jumped on after seeing Baker perform a scene from [I]Baby Doll [/I]while she was studying at the Actors Studio.
