The 2011 comedy classic Bridesmaids almost included a hilarious cameo from Paul Rudd, but the scene was deleted from the final cut of the movie. Bridesmaids already featured a number of top-tier comedic actors, including Kristen Wiig, Maya Rudolph, and Jon Hamm, but Rudd was almost another addition to the star-studded cast. Even without his appearance, the movie was a smashing success, earning $280 million worldwide. It even helped propel the comedy careers of actors like Melissa McCarthy and Ellie Kemper.
