But why didn't they just use Julie Andrews instead of dubbing Audrey Hepburn's voice for the movie version of My Fair Lady?
They didn't want to take a chance by using Julie Andrews. Although Julie had perfected the character of Eliza Doolittle on stage on Broadway and in London in My Fair Lady and was a star on Broadway, she was virtually unknown in the movie world. They wanted a big name to play Eliza Doolittle in the movie version of My Fair Lady and that's why they chose Audrey Hepburn instead. I'm not sure why they didn't choose another star who could actually sing. In hindsight, I'm sure they realized that Julie Andrews would've been the better choice.
