Movies where an actor was replaced in the sequel...
In a thread over in the TV Forum, das Monkey mentioned Brian Dennehy, and that to me thinking about the movies he's been in and how he replaced Kirk Douglas in The Man From Snowy River.

How many can we come up with:

Movie | Character | Actor | Actor in Sequel

Man From Snowy River | Harrison | Kirk Douglas | Brian Dennehy

Mortal Kombat | Lord Rayden | Christopher Lambert | James Remar

007 | James Bond | Sean Connery | George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, and Pierce Brosnan

Any others?

I believe that was a different character alltogether.

Don't forget Elisabeth Shue replacing Claudia Wells as Jennifer in BTTF II and III.

Can we still count Ian McDiarmid replacing Clive Revill as the Emperor in Return of the Jedi? I know I prefer to.

Not quite. Tom Berenger played John Shale. Treat Williams played Karl Thomasson.
