Before the pieces fell into place, Evans had been trying to get Popeye made for several years. Among the directors who almost made it: Mike Nichols (The Graduate), Arthur Penn (Bonnie and Clyde) and Hal Ashby (Being There). Among the stars nearly attached to play Olive Oyl were Gilda Radner and Lily Tomlin; Dustin Hoffman was set to play Popeye but is said to have dropped out over the hiring of Jules Feiffer as writer.
