Line 117:
* Dev Patel was chosen for the part of Jamal in ''[[Slumdog Millionaire]]'' because the director wanted a completely ordinary looking guy to play the role rather than any of the muscle bound guys which had auditioned for the role before.
** Similarly, Tim Burton chose Michael Keaton rather than an action star for the role in 1989's [[Batman]] because Bruce Wayne was an "average" (albeit rich) guy who became a vigilante.
*** Which ignores that Batman was supposed to have spent the majority of his adult life training to be Batman, which would turn just about anyone into an action star type body. But then, Tim Burton also once bragged that he'd never read a comic book in his life, so that perhaps says a lot about his Batman movies.
