Apparently he was offered both roles and turned them down because he didn't get them. What if he took both roles?

Gandalf would be more badass and Connery would be more gay as Dumbledorf?

I don't know why I did this. I don't even know if you would have recognized him if I hadn't posted it here.

"My name is Gandalf. Gandalf the White."

"Shake the wand, Harry. Don't stir it."

I am not sure if scheduling would permit to take BOTH roles.

However, my guess is that we would have directors with more headaches.

Wouldn't be so good I think. McKellan was a semi-unknown (to the mainstream cinema going world of course) and made the role his own. He was Gandalf.
With Connery though...you'd look and see a old James Bond.
