Originally, he was meant to sing "Greased Lightning," which later went to Travolta. “Otherwise she’s just all that surface stuff.” One star who didn't get to keep his big solo? Jeff Conaway, who played Kenickie. Other songs were (nearly!) cut: Stockard Channing, who played Rizzo, had to convince Carr not to cut her big solo, "There Are Worse Things I Could Do." "That’s how you know what’s inside this little person,” she said she told Carr. “He played it for me and said, ‘What do you think?’ I went, ‘Oh, God, it’s amazing.’ It just had this fantastic energy," she recalled.Ħ. A few of the songs were added at the last minute: The movie was almost made without its title song, which was performed by Frankie Valli, as well as "Sandy," "Hopelessly Devoted to You" and the duet "You're the One That I Want," which was written by Newton-John's songwriter John Farrar. Elvis could have been in the film: Originally, Elvis was considered a possibility to play Teen Angel, but he died in 1977, when the movie was being made. However, to accommodate the actress, the character was made Australian and the cinematographer used soft lenses to make the 29-year-old star appear younger, especially alongside Travolta, who was then 23.Ĥ. “She had a brilliant voice, and I didn’t think there could be any more correct person for Sandy in the universe,” Travolta said. Olivia Newton-John, who ultimately played Sandy, was discovered after she sat next to Carr at a dinner party. Meanwhile, the actresses considered for Sandy included Carrie Fisher, Susan Dey, Deborah Raffin and Marie Osmond, who ultimately dropped out because Sandy morphed into a rebel at the end of the film. Sandy and Danny were almost played by other stars: The studio originally wanted Henry Winkler to play Danny Zuko, but the "Happy Days" star passed out of fear of being typecast. Other would-be castings: Paul Lynde was almost the Rydell High principal, Detroit Tigers player Mark "The Bird" Bidrych was almost a star jock, and Donny Osmond was considered as Teen Angel.ģ. The script underwent dramatic changes: Originally, John Travolta's Danny Zuko was written as a bus boy and gas-station employee who sang a song called "Gas Pump Jockey" and the Beach Boys were meant to sing "Greased Lightnin'" in a garage.
