9. A Major Studio Lost Out On Millions After Dropping The Film
Dave Chappelle and John Travolta weren’t the only ones who made mistakes when they passed on an opportunity to be part of this Amerian classic. Initially, Warner Bros. had been the studio who’d obtained rights for the film. However, they gave them up in 1988 in exchange for the rights for the film Executive Decision (1996), after the studio felt Rain Man (1988) meant the project had lost its commercial potential.
