What do you think would have been different with the entertainment industry if these celebrities didn't die?

Bruce Lee



Bruce Lee was suppose to star on a movie show titled Kung Fu but the Hollywood executives are racist. So they casted David Carradine, a white guy as the lead role for a tv show Bruce conceptualized. He wa so upset with Hollywood that he tried his luck with Hong Kong movie industry. Bruce is an instant hit in Hong Kong and his Hong Kong movies are box office success worldwide. His Last movie Game of death was co-produced by Warner Brothers, It is suppose to launch his Hollywood comeback.

This is the image Hollywood want to represent Asian men:


The moment Bruce Lee died, these sexually unattractive caricatures would have not been the asian representation in Hollywood movies for decades. If Bruce Lee didn't die, His intended projects are:

A Wushia film (Historical Chinese Kung Fu movies) He even screen tested for it:


A Hollywood comeback

A remake of Charlie Chan (Charlie Chan was a popular fictional Chinese character in Hollywood movies during 1930's. He is usually played by a white guy with Chinese make up)

Marilyn Monroe is the most iconic sex icon of Hollywood. She had been dead for a long time people still knows who she is. Sh died on her 40s so that means her career in Hollywood as a lead was numbered.



Marilyn is known for her dumb blond bombshells roles. She actually wanted to break free from those roles and win as Oscar. There are many theories that she got murdered. I mean her last will and testament says her estate will go to her manager instead of her family.

if she didn't die, I think she might have been excited to be an older woman and play mother roles because that was her chance to be taken seriously. Many Bombshell type actresses became serious actresses when they lost their sex appeal.

Or if she didn't die her career would have crumbled and she might have retired and got married and adopt some kids because she is infertile. She may have also been involved in more relationship scandals and failed marriages.

Think of a celebrity who died young and tell me what do you think their career would have been?

We would probably be having more captivating movies than we have right now. Am sure there would be a mass of young people who would want to be mentored to be like them and become famous.

I doubt that Marilyn would still be alive but her death put her on a pedestal and she was seen as a symbol of a decade. She is still idolatrized and I think it wouldn't be that way if she hadn't passed away so young. It is exactly the same with James Dean.

If Marilyn didnt die young, Yeah she may not be as iconic as she is today, I wonder if she could have got her dream of Oscars.

Bruce Lee would have made more differences, Asians would have been less discriminated in Hollywood because he would open more doors to Asians. It would have killed the careers of Jackie Chan and Chuck Norris though. They biggest breakss are movies originally for Bruce Lee. Jackie Chan was originally a Stuntman who sidelines to porn. Chuck is usually a goon Bruce Lee have to kill in a movie. The sexual nerd stereotype in Hollywood would have died earlier.

Recently (although not so young) Irrfan Khan died. He did some amazing roles in Bollywood, as well as a role in The Jurassic World (2015) and Life of Pi in Hollywood.
He was equally comfortable in all madness- all nonsense commercial action packed movies as well as more of the serious cinema.
Then we had a very young female actor Divya Bharti who was very successful in just two years and died in mysterious circumstances in early 1990s.

In last year we also lost Rishi Kapoor, he was a talented actor

If Chadwick Boseman didn't die, Aside from making more Black Panther movies, He also would have made Yasuke movie. Yasuke was a historical figure in Japan. He was an African Slave who became a Samurai.




This would have been a cool movie that we will never get to watch unless they recast Yasuke.

According to the Wachowski Sisters, If Bruce's Son, Brandon Lee didn't die he would have gotten the role of Neo in the Matrix. He is a better actor than Keanu so I am jealous of people from the other dimension who gets to see this version.


Back in the 90s, Marvel actually had plans to make a Shang-Chi movie and Brandon Lee was also their first choice but he died.

I often think about John Lennon and wonder whether he would have made more music or how his life would have changed. It affected me because his death was so senseless. Some idiot with an agenda just took him out but however it affected the rest of the world or the music industry it isn't even a drop in the ocean to how it will have changed the lives of his wife and children.

If he didnt die, He would have been part of the Beatles reunion in 1980s

Bruce Lee was an icon and he died pretty young. Well, mysteries loom around his death.
We had many suspicious deaths in Bollywood. Sridevi died at 54. Though they said it to be a natural death, the theory of her being murdered can not be ruled. Last year. a young talented rising star Sushant Singh died at 34. It came out as suicide but then all evidence suggests murder involving political leaders, the underworld, and Bollywood.

Robin Williams was originally going to be in the Jumanji reboot with the Rock and he is also producing Mrs. Doubtfire 2 but he died.

Princess Diana almost made The bodyguard 2 movie.If she died die she would have made her Hollywood debut.

If Paul Walker didn't die, we could have seen him in more Fast and Furious movies. His daughter is now an actress, he could have made a movie with his daughter.
