!!Tropes:
* StarDerailingRole: ''Film/SoulMan'', for obvious reasons.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: When Creator/MichaelJFox was initially unavailable to star as Marty [=McFly=] in ''Film/BackToTheFuture1'', the producers narrowed their secondary choices down to Howell or Creator/EricStoltz. Creator/RobertZemeckis and Bob Gale preferred Howell, but Creator/{{Universal}} preferred Stoltz, so they started shooting with Stoltz, who was later fired because his performance wasn't matching the producers' expectations for the character. By that time, Fox was available, so Howell became an afterthought, and Stoltz became the TropeNamer for TheOtherMarty.
