While Warner Bros. is still mulling over a decision to deal with Ezra Miller and his mounting issues, let's take a look at several actors who were replaced in movie after involved in some controversy.

AceShowbiz - Unlike the aforementioned actors who were forced to let go their roles, Robin Williams made the decision on his own not to return to "Aladdin II: The Return of Jafar". It was after his dispute with Disney following the release of "Aladdin" (1992), during which he claimed that the corporation ignored his request to not use his voice in ads and any merchandising.
After Williams refused to return for the 1994 direct-to-video sequel, Disney cast Dan Castellaneta to voice the Genie, which would turn out to be a bad decision. After Jeffrey Katzenberg was replaced by Joe Roth as Walt Disney Studios chairman, Roth issued a public apology to Williams and the actor later agreed to reprise the role in the second sequel, "Aladdin and the King of Thieves" (1996).
