Answer
Scarlett O'Hara was the role that Susan Hayward auditioned for in 1937. The role was ultimately given to Vivien Leigh, but Hayward's audition was impressive enough to launch her career in Hollywood. She went on to star in a number of successful films, including "My Man Godfrey" (1936), "The Lady Eve" (1941), and "I Want to Live!" (1958).
