Edge Of Tomorrow (2014) and My Cousin Vinny (1992)

In the latest episode of Film Stories with Simon Brew, an expensive blockbuster, and a modestly costed comedy. 2014's Edge Of Tomorrow was a sizeable gamble for Warner Bros. It went through many writers, had a maverick director, and nearly ended up with Brad Pitt in the lead. Few saw the sizeable success of Joe Pesci-headlined comedy My Cousin Vinny coming, meanwhile. Pesci wasn't first choice, though, and the original script had a different spin on the character. Stories of both are discussed in this episode.
