Maybe this is my reading between the lines where there is no evidence for it, but my assumption was that "considered for the role" meant a bit more than Huston and the producers bouncing ideas for the female leads off each other, especially given that Fitzgerald and de Havilland were under contract to Warners at this time.

2. Can we not cite ChatGPT as a source?
Wikipedia should also never be cited unless it credits a source. Then cite the source, if it is a reliable one.

That information on Wikipedia does credit its source (the AFI Catalog) and I wouldn't have posted about it here if it was unsourced. I'm going to go ahead and assume that you understand the difference between what I did and "asking" the world's most expensive autocorrect if Ann Sheridan was considered for the role.
