Wasn’t Tim Robbins like the fifth choice or something for the role of Andy Dufresne?
Robbins was outstanding in the role but a lack of star power, leading man may have also contributed.

In Rita Hayworth And The Shawshank Redemption, Red is a ginger-haired, Irishman. Harrison Ford, Clint Eastwood and Paul Newman were all considered for the role that eventually went to Morgan Freeman. Darabont alluded to the casting choice by having Red jokingly reply to Andy’s inquiry about his nickname with the line, “Maybe it’s because I’m Irish.”
Clint Eastwood or Paul Newman would have made an awesome Red.
