An urban legend claims that a curse has killed all the actors who have shown an interest in the lead role [of the script]. These include John Belushi, Sam Kinison, John Candy, Phil Hartman and Chris Farley!

Atuk (Inuit for "Grandfather") is the name of an unfilmed American film screenplay, intended to be a film adaptation based upon the 1963 novel The Incomparable Atuk by Canadian author Mordecai Richler. It is essentially a fish out of water comedy of a proud, mighty Inuit hunter trying to adapt to life in the big city with satirical elements on racism, materialism, and popular culture. Peter Gzowski's afterword adds some historical context, and elaborates on the satirized real-life counterparts of several of the novel's minor characters, including Pierre Berton.

A fun rundown of the urban legend to watch if you want to get spooked:

Do I believe this? No. Is it a harmless and fun conspiracy theory? Yes.
