why didnt they show Jack Nicolson?

Was expecting Jacks face in the door doing the iconic 'Heres Johnny' when the axe through the door happened . then we saw his legs in the snow maze but that was it

Maybe Jack wouldn't grant the right to use his image for a reasonable price? In fact I dont think there was much use of actors images in the movie in their iconic roles - just the iconic characters (that weren't specific to a particular actor) or ships/cars/equipment associated with them so mustve been a rights issue - yeh you can use stuff to do with such and such but not the actors likeness
