Dolly Parton Declined Evil Role | Entertainment and Celebrity News

Dolly Parton turned down a seven-million-dollar villain role in the 1984 Supergirl movie, saying she couldn’t play evil—it wasn’t her nature. Known for her warm, positive persona, she questioned if she’d come across as an “evil witch,” preferring roles that matched her true self. Though the original Supergirl film flopped and featured Faye Dunaway as the villain, Parton’s acting career shone in films like Nine to Five and Steel Magnolias. Now, with a new Supergirl reboot starring Milly Alcock—whose performance was praised for its raw vulnerability—the legacy of the iconic character continues, even as Dolly’s refusal to compromise her spirit remains a powerful testament to her integrity.
