Making a movie is a very tough task. Hundreds of people belonging to several departments work for months to make a movie that runs for about a couple of hours. Someone need to invest big money, someone need to act, and some other need to plan everything well. If something goes wrong, the project gets delayed, budget creeps up, or the entire movie can get canceled altogether. There were some great movies planned in the past, but they never made it to the theater for various reasons. Check these fifteen movies that were planned, but never released. 
13.Uncle Tom's Fairy Tales

This movie was originally going to be the first movie to star Richard Pryor. The sad part was that they did start filming it, but it crashed and burned as his wife complained that he was paying the movie more attention than her and she set fire to some of the film. It was all about a white man on trial for raping a black woman, so it was not exactly a comedy.

14.Hamlet (by Hitchcock)

The combination sounds amazing, right? The last thing any movie lover wants to see is Alfred Hitchcock directing a Shakespeare's legendary literary work. In the late 1940s, Hitchcock wanted to direct a modernized version of 'Hamlet', which according to him would be a psychological melodrama. The project hit the rocks because Hitchcock was threatened to be sued.

15.Halo

Halo is one of the most popular and best-selling video games of all time. We have been hearing about the idea of making a movie based on the game for the past decade or so, but it isn't really happening. In 2005, Peter Jackson (Lord of the Rings and Hobbit Director) announced that he would be executive-producing the movie. He also announced Neill Blomkamp (Neill is District 9 (2009) movie director who was an unknown person at that time) as the movie's director. The film was scheduled to release in 2008. After a few starts and stops, Blomkamp had officially announced that the project was dead.
