 He had also expressed interest in portraying Atuk in a film adaptation of Mordecai Richler's "The Incomparable Atuk" and Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle in a biopic based on the silent film comedian's life.These three shelved projects have been alleged as "cursed" because Candy, John Belushi, Sam Kinison and Chris Farley were each attached to all three roles, and they all died before they could make any of these films.Candy was originally considered to play Alec Guinness's role in the remake of the 1950 film, "Last Holiday", with Carl Reiner directing.
