Marilyn Monroe joins the ever growing list of screen legends who didnt make it through the first round. Toni Collette and Ewan McGregor slip through and thanks to a late surge they are joined by John C. Reilly. 

Next up we have 2 of the biggest names in the business and luckily they have avoided each other. For now.

Round 1 - Matches 225 - 228

Robert Hardy - His co-star from All Creatures Great and Small (1978), Peter Davison, quite simply described Hardy as an "extraordinary" actor who would "never do the same thing twice" when he was acting with him.

Robert De Niro - He and Martin Scorsese were brought up blocks apart in the Greenwich Village area of Manhattan, but never formally met when they were young. When introduced at a party in 1972, the two came to realize that they had seen each other many times but had never spoken.
