The Collabs We Didn't Get

There are so many actors and directors that passed away or retired before they could even consider working together. So, suggest a director here and suggest actors that you would have wanted to see them work with but never got the chance because one or both of them retired or died before the chance for a collaboration ever came about. Please refrain from suggesting studios (Pixar, Disney, Dreamworks, etc.).
