I think he turned down the role of Gandalf in LOTR. Which was ultimately for the best imo. Ian McKellen's performance was so flawless I doubt it could be bettered.

Sean Connery as Gandalf would have been a joke.

"End? No, the journey doeshn't end here. Death ish jusht another path. One that we all musht take. The grey rain-curtain of thish world rollsh back, and all turnsh to shilver glassh... then you shee it."
