Selleck never got the chance to star as Indiana Jones because of scheduling conflicts from Magnum P.I. He was going to star on the first episodes of the TV show. 3 weeks before the film went into production, Harrison Ford was eventually cast.

How do you defeat the guy who breathes fire at you on Indiana Jones for the Wii?

I'm not sure if I have the same game as you. ( I have Indiana Jones 2 The Adventure Continues for Wii ). If you do, you throw the water things at it's foot putting the flames out. Then you be the other character ( Not Indiana Jones ) and go in the hole where you threw the water and role up. Hit the guy off on the top. Then jump down and become Indiana Jones and pull all the monsters arms and legs off with the whip ( including the head ) - do this over and over till it dies. Good luck! Hope this helps!
