London, Jul 8 (PTI) "Zombieland" actor Woody Harrelson turned down a role in starring in "Kong: Skull Island" as he did not care about the giant ape.
The 55-year-old actor was offered a villainous role in the sci-fi blockbuster, but despite the prospect of a huge payday, he turned down the part, reported Contactmusic.
"I had the opportunity to star in this big movie 'Kong: Skull Island'. Big movie, big payday, all that stuff. But I just thought 'I don't care about 'King Kong'. And in the end I was so glad I turned it down - because one week later, along comes 'War for Planet of the Apes'," he said.
"I saw the first 'Apes' movies and I thought 'man, that was un-bee-lievable, I can't wait to see the second one'. Then I see the second one, and I thought 'now I can't wait to see the third one'. - without realising I'd actually get to be in it," Harrelson said.
