* TheOtherMarty: Emily Lloyd was originally cast in ''{{Film/Mermaids}}''. But {{Music/Cher}} complained that there was no way they could play mother and daughter, and so she was recast. She got $435,000 and 2.5% of the net profits for her troubles after she sued the filmmakers.

* ContractualPurity: By the end of the 80s, she had a family-friendly image for roles such as ''{{Film/Beetlejuice}}'', and her agent begged her not to star in ''{{Film/Heathers}}'' out of fear of ruining that. She ended up doing the film anyway and, although it flopped at the Box Office, she had no problem getting roles in the likes of ''Film/EdwardScissorhands''. It has since become a cult classic and she considers it one of her best roles.


Added DiffLines:

* HostilityOnTheSet: She and Gary Oldman seemingly got on fine during rehearsals for ''Bram Stoker's Dracula'' but then suddenly just didn't get along during filming. Supposedly it was a combination of him being distant due to going through a divorce and a clash of acting styles - him being an intense method actor whose approach unnerved her, and her needing a coach to bring out the necessary emotions. Years later, she dismissed it as "teenage drama" and says they became friends.


Added DiffLines:

** ''Theatre/TheCrucible'' is one of her most evil roles. While Abigail has some sympathetic qualities, it's very surprising to see her as someone so villainous.


Added DiffLines:

* StuntCasting:
** Columbia only agreed to finance ''Film/LittleWomen1994'' if Winona played Jo, since they feared a female-oriented film would flop if they didn't have a bankable star in there. Luckily, she was a big fan of the book and eager to play the role.
** ''Film/RealityBites'' was likewise only greenlit because she was attached to it.


Added DiffLines:

** She was jokingly told a pitch for a ''{{Film/Heathers}}'' sequel featuring Veronica trying to assassinate a senator to be played by Meryl Streep, and excitedly said she'd do it.
