Robert Downey Jr. and Jimmy Fallon Recall Failed Auditions for The Holiday

Robert Downey Jr. and Jimmy Fallon auditioned together for The Holiday in 2006.
Downey Jr. attempted a British accent for the role given to Jude Law but was criticized by Kate Winslet.
Fallon was interested in Jack Black's role but both he and Downey Jr. were told they weren't a perfect fit.
The experience impressed Fallon, who decided to stop auditioning for acting roles after that.
The Holiday went on to be a box office success when released in 2006.
