Like, ‘Oh, if I had done Forrest Gump or Chicago, what might have been?’” to which Travolta replied, “No, because if I didn’t do something Tom Hanks did, then I did something else that was equally interesting or fun. Or, if I didn’t do something Richard Gere did, I did something equally well. But I feel good about some I gave up because other careers were created.”
