Sally Field almost landed a role in one of the most iconic movies<\/a> in history, and is finally revealing why she ended up saying no.<\/p>\n

During an interview with Parade,<\/a> the actress explained why she said no to the role of Annie Paradis in “The First Wives Club.” According to the Academy Award winner, she said no because she had an issue with the plot of the movie.<\/p>\n

“I loved all those actors. But I did turn it down,” Field began. “I have always had a problem with older women either wanting to get a date or looking to, like, you know, have more sex with their husband.”<\/p>\n

“I just feel like there\u2019s more for women to say, so that was just never my cup of tea,” she continued.<\/p>\n

SALLY FIELD CONFESSES SHE \u2018CAN\u2019T IMAGINE\u2019 GETTING MARRIED AGAIN, ISN\u2019T GOOD AT \u2018PICKING A PARTNER\u2019<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

A quick reminder, “The First Wives Club” followed three middle-aged women, Annie, Brenda, and Elise, who reunite after the suicide of their college friend, who was abandoned by her husband for a younger woman.<\/p>\n

Realizing they\u2019ve all been similarly discarded by their own husbands, the trio forms a bond and decide to take revenge. The comedy starred Goldie Hawn<\/a>, Diane Keaton and Bette Midler.<\/p>\n

Field told Parade that the musical number of the three women was another reason she has no regrets about declining the role.<\/p>\n

“I couldn\u2019t have done that role because I don\u2019t sing, and they all do at the end,” she said.<\/p>\n

The role Field was offered ended up going to the late Keaton. “I would never have been as good,” Field told the outlet. “I mean, it was absolutely right for Keaton\u2014not for me.”<\/p>\n

Keaton passed away<\/a> on Oct. 11 at 79 from bacterial pneumonia.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
