Headline: Kevin Costner nearly missed out to Robin Williams in Field of Dreams

Caption: The Oscar winner told GQ magazine that Williams was also in the running to star as Ray Kinsella in the classic sports fantasy film. At the time, Williams had recently starred in Dead Poets Society and was rising through the ranks thanks to his roles on TV's Mork & Mindy and in the film Good Morning, Vietnam. "There was an interesting thing because Robin Williams, bless his heart, there was a moment when I asked the director, I said, 'You know, Robin Williams is a big star, as big as you ever wanna get,'”.
