Neither of them are famous actors but Mary Ellen Stuart nearly was much more famous..

Mary Ellen Stuart had been tapped to take over the lead role in the Greatest American Hero .. the final unaired episode (now on DVD) of The Greatest American Heroine was intended to act as a backdoor pilot for the proposed spinoff ..
S3.E14

The Greatest American Heroine
Episode aired 1986 TV-14 46m

Trivia

According to William Katt, the original concept for this pilot was for NBC to revive the series with himself back in the role of Ralph Hinkley for another season, but due to his steady work on Perry Mason, he declined the offer, thus The Greatest American Heroine concept was created, and ultimately rejected.


Brandon Tartikoff felt that ABC had made a terrible mistake in canceling the series and decided NBC should recreate it with a female protagonist. This pilot was not picked up but was added to the syndication rerun package.

This episode was also the last TV role for Clayton Moore (The Lone Ranger).
