Edward G Robinson did HOUSE OF STRANGERS which is kind of similar to the Godfather in ways, in fact, it also has Richard Conte as his son.

Another wrinkle in the Godfather Casting Game is that Robert DeNiro was screen tested for Sonny. The producers found DeNiro to be pleasant and agreeable off camera and were astonished when, during the test, he transformed into a raging psycho killer. He didn't get the part but when The Godfather, Part II came around, he was remembered. The rest, as the saying goes, is history.
