Fan CastingHere Comes Mr. Jordan (1941 recast)

While flying on an airplane, professional boxer Joe Pendleton dies in a crash because a newly hired heavenly messenger impulsively snatched Joe's spirit from the latter’s body prematurely. Before the matter can be rectified, Joe's body is cremated; so the celestial Mr. Jordan grants him the use of the body of a wealthy man by the name of Bruce Farnsworth, who has just been drowned in a bathtub by his gold-digging wife, Julia, and his secretary, Tony Abbott. Joe tries to remake Farnsworth's unworthy life in his own clean-cut image, and deal with Farnsworth’s wife, all while falling in love with Betty Logan, an environmental activist who first met him to protest the real Farnsworth’s corporate policy. —Paraphrased from Rod Crawford on IMDb
