Contents
Cut
The following guest stars recorded a role that was cut or re-dubbed:

- John Turturro originally recorded the role of Mr. Mitchell in "The Canine Mutiny"; some of the dialogue was re-written and Turturro was "pissy" about re-recording, so he was dropped and replaced by Dan Castellaneta.[2][3]
- Robby Krieger of The Doors recorded a cameo for the episode "The Great Money Caper", but his part was cut because the writers felt his appearance seemed too forced. The scene was later included on the DVD.[4]
- Peter Wolf and Harry Hamlin were announced as guest stars for "Homerazzi" in the original Fox press release,[5] but their parts were cut before broadcast.[6]
- Isla Fisher's part,[7] Erin Brockovich's role as herself,[7] and Minnie Driver's appearance as a grievance counsellor in The Simpsons Movie were all cut.[8]

- Aaron Sorkin's part as himself in the season 25 episode "Four Regrettings and a Funeral" was cut.[12][13]
- Bill Simmons was originally going to guest star in "Podcast News".[14] However, his dialogue wasn't recorded due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[15]
- Billie Eilish was planned to guest star and sing the intro music to the Guilty Grampa podcast of "Podcast News". However, the part was cut for time and the producers never reached out to her.[16]
Replaced
The following people accepted a role on the show but did not record it and so were replaced by somebody else.
- James Earl Jones, who later made three guest appearances on the show, was initially lined up to voice Sideshow Bob in "Krusty Gets Busted" before Kelsey Grammer was selected.[17]
- Anthony Perkins agreed to voice the character of Dr. Wolfe in "Last Exit to Springfield" but died before the role could be recorded. Hank Azaria voiced Wolfe instead.[18]

- Christopher Walken agreed to voice himself in "Insane Clown Poppy" but, in the end, did not record the part and so was replaced by Jay Mohr doing an impression of Walken.[20]
- Jim Carrey agreed to voice the singing railroad hobo in "Simpsons Tall Tales" but did not have time to record the part and so was replaced by Hank Azaria.[21]

- Ryne Sandberg and Carlton Fisk turned down the chance to guest star in "Homer at the Bat",[26] as did Barry Bonds and Nolan Ryan.[27]
- Don Rickles rejected a role as himself in "New Kid on the Block" in what was to be the episode's original subplot. Homer was supposed to fight with Rickles after laughing execessively during a performance leading to them attending court. Rickles rejected because he didn't like his portrayal.[28]
- George Takei (although he guest starred before and after) declined to appear as himself in "Marge vs. the Monorail" because he did not want to mock public transport. Leonard Nimoy accepted instead.[29]

Macy (who appeared during season 17) would have been approached, but they felt Azaria was a better fit.[46] According to Azaria, Macy was approached but was unable to record the role due to a scheduling conflict; Azaria based his performance on Macy.[47]

- Michael Clarke Duncan declined to voice a character similar to his role as John Coffey in The Green Mile in the episode "The Frying Game".[57]
- Tom Brokaw rejected the chance to play himself in "Bart vs. Lisa vs. the Third Grade" because he liked Harry Shearer's impersonation of him.[58]

- Prince was lined up to appear in an unproduced sequel to "Stark Raving Dad" as Leon Kompowsky. Although he initially accepted it transpired that the script he received was not the one written by the staff and Prince refused to appear using the staff's script and so the episode was never made.[71]

- Faye Dunaway cancelled for an unspecified role in season 4.[78]
- Matt Groening was told that if the restaurant chain Planet Hollywood appeared in an episode, its creators Bruce Willis, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone would guest star. The staff wrote it in as the subplot for the episode "$pringfield (Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Legalized Gambling)". For unknown reasons, the three could not appear and the plot was dropped.[79] The subplot can be seen in the episode's original script.[80]
- "$pringfield"'s original script indicates that Robert Goulet's part was written for Wayne Newton and Gerry Cooney's part was written for Marvelous Marvin Hagler.[80]

They were dropped after Tony Blair agreed to guest star,[62] and it was deemed that they were not famous enough in the United States and so were not approached.[62][93]
- If Ronaldo had been unable to record his part in "Marge Gamer", Ronaldinho would have been approached instead.[94]
