Thank god for sean connery turning down roles i say. He declined to play gandalf, because he didn't see the movies becoming a success. He declined magneto because he didn't think it could become a franchise.(McKellan thanks him twice) and he declined playing morpheus because he didnt understand the story....small note, they wanted will smith to play neo.
Let's face it. Connery made some good movies, especially james bond. But by god he has an awful long list of terrible ones, and is well known to drive directors insane with changes and demands...a road bruce willis has turned into.
I could see charles dance as magneto though.
