Fox&#8217;s Biggest Career Regret: Turning Down &#8220;Ghost&#8221; Opposite Whoopi Goldberg<\/h2>\n<p>Actor Michael J. Fox recently appeared on ABC&#8217;s &#8220;The View&#8221; and revealed his biggest career regret to actress Whoopi Goldberg. It turns out that Fox had once turned down a film role opposite Goldberg in the hit 1990 movie &#8220;Ghost.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>Regretting the Missed Opportunity<\/h3>\n<p>During the show, Goldberg asked Fox if there were any roles he regretted turning down. Fox replied, &#8220;There was a chance to work with you that I missed.&#8221; He went on to explain that he had been approached about the role in &#8220;Ghost&#8221; but had turned it down, saying, &#8220;It&#8217;ll never work. Whoopi&#8217;s great, but it&#8217;ll never work.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Goldberg was shocked by the revelation, but she promised Fox that they would &#8220;find something&#8221; to work on together in the future.<\/p>\n<h3>Dealing with Parkinson&#8217;s Disease<\/h3>\n<p>Aside from discussing his career regrets, Fox also opened up about his battle with Parkinson&#8217;s disease. He was diagnosed with the disease when he was just 29 years old and has continued to work for many years despite his symptoms.<\/p>\n<p>However, in recent years, Fox has found that the unsteadiness caused by Parkinson&#8217;s has made it more difficult for him to work. He explained that he doesn&#8217;t expect to live to see 80 years old, but he&#8217;s proud of what he&#8217;s accomplished in his life so far.<\/p>\n<h3>Takeaways<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Michael J.
