Imagine if Thor were played by someone else, and not Chris Hemsworth, or if Monica Geller from Friends looked nothing like Courteney Cox, or if the famous Harry Potter would’ve been a blond boy… We’ll never know what this would have been like, so we can only assume how it could be if the casting crew had made another decision.
