Barnorama All Fun In The Barn
When good actors go rogue: The most disappointing casting choices.
“Keanu Reeves in Francis Ford Coppolla’s Bram Stoker’s Dracula.”
“I think of Marwan Kenzari as Jafar in the new Aladin. Jafar was a creepy, old man and they cast a handsome younger man.
He was not at all intimidating, I don’t feel they gave him very good lines. Someone early on had made a joke that the poster for the movie looked like a porn parody and I couldn’t get that out of my head whenever I saw Jafar.”
“Gary Oldman as a dwarf in Tiptoes, also starring Peter Dinklage.”
“Vince Vaughn as Norman Bates. But only a complete nutter would remake Psycho in the first place.”
“Denise Richards, the nuclear scientist in that James Bond movie.”
“Ben Affleck as daredevil. The script was bad and that can take a lot of the blame. However Affleck still moves around like his spine is fused, while trying to portray one of the more nimble characters in marvel.”
“Mark Wahlberg as Sully in Uncharted was a huge miscast. He didn’t even try to do Sully’s voice, he was literally just Marky Mark.”
“Paul Rudd as the @$$hole husband in Night at The Museum…. If you watch that movie while imagining that Ben Stiller and Paul Rudd’s roles were reversed, it would be so much better. Night at The Museum is secretly a Paul Rudd movie.”
“Valerian and the city of 1000 planets. The whole cast”
“Jessie Eisenberg as lex Luthor. I still get mad at his performance.”
“John Wayne as Genghis Khan in The Conquerer”
“Russell Crowe trying to sing as Javert in Les Miserables”
“A 5ft 6 Tom Cruise as a 6ft 4 muscled man in the Reacher movies. The movies were ok, but he was so far off the original material.”
“The entire cast of 50 shades of grey”
“Shia Leboeuf in Indiana Jones. I don’t think they knew what they wanted to do and he exemplifies that”
“Miles Teller as Mr Fantastic”
“Steven Seagal as an action star.”
“Cameron Diaz in Gangs of New York”
“Ray Liotta in the Dungeon Siege movie. He plays an evil wizard and he literally just looks like he walked off the set of a gangster movie like Goodfellas. It’s pretty hilarious.”
“Worst of all time – Topher Grace as Eddie Brock in Spider-Man 3”
