Emma Stone's 10 roles she almost played revealed (including TWO box office bombs!) as Poor Things star heats up the Oscars race and eyes her second Best Actress win


After she emerged as one of the frontrunners in the Oscars race following her win at the BAFTAs, DailyMail.com takes a look back at some of the most high-profile roles Emma Stone almost played.

Jennifer's Body, which was directed by Karyn Kusama and written by Juno scribe Diablo Cody, has been reevaluated as a cult classic in recent years following its disappointing box office performance and initially mixed reviews. The movie, which was directed and co-written by future Oscar winner Guillermo del Toro, eventually starred Mia Wasikowska as the writer Edith Cushing, the daughter of a wealthy businessman in Buffalo, New York, circa 1887. The Wrap reported at the time that she left the project to focus on Cameron Crowe's critically reviled Aloha and the Woody Allen rom-com Magic In The Moonlight, which she starred in opposite Colin Firth.
