I heard that Dustin Hoffman is not in it because he felt he part was too small. Hence he wanted either a rewrite to increase the size of his role or more money. The result? He got the rewrite….rewritten right out of the script. Dusty needs to realize that he is no longer an “A List” draw!

Maybe he just realizes that the movie will suck like the second one. So wanted out and that was his way out…
