Why Marilyn Monroe’s Unfinished Movie Was Abandoned & Is Still Incomplete 60 Years Later

Marilyn Monroe’s all-too-short movie career is one of Hollywood’s most iconic, but her unfinished final movie, Something’s Got To Give, might not be as common knowledge. Officially, Marilyn Monroe’s last movie was the 1960 drama The Misfits, but in actuality, she was in the process of filming a new movie at the time of her death in 1962. It was set to be a remake of the 1940 screwball comedy My Favorite Wife, and Marilyn Monroe was going to star alongside Dean Martin, playing his thought-to-be deceased wife Ellen. Sadly, though, the movie had to be abandoned.
