What are the Worst Casting Decisions that have ever been made? -

[Truthboi]

Casting is probably an important part of any work that has a audio or visual component to it that would require actors. So who has been the worst casted actor for anything ever? It could be from bad voice acting to bad acting in general, everything is off limits!

Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor in the Snyderverse has to be up there.

Yeah it is definitely a shit casting decision. I get what they were going for but it's hard to take a clearly insane dumb rich kid as the head of a multi-billion dollar company who also spouts off crazy religious ramblings that feel more like a mouthpiece for how Snyder views Superheros. Eisenberg would've been better off playing the Joker compared to the guy they had.

Speaking of which Leto is a pretty garbage Joker who acts like a cringeworthy tryhard who can't be funny or scary to save his life and literally looks like a 10 year old in Joker make-up. He was decent in Snyder cut but there is still a cringe element to him that can't be taken off.

Mark Hamill as Chucky in the child's play remake is a disgrace to the movie's franchise.

Michael Cera. You know the role I'm talking about.

Michael Cera. You know the role I'm talking about.

All of them?

 

[Megaroad 2012]

Stallone could of been a good Dredd if he just kept the mask on, so I'll go with that as bad decision.

I'd say most anime dubs of past 10-15 years have been nothing but ass but that's a bit broad and obvious, even before whatever retarded shit is happening in that weebwars thread. I can sit through the drunk english voice acting in Macross II from the 80's but I can't sit through the charasmatic bores Funimation and such hires now a days. (Canada's dubbing group, Ocean, is awesome though)

Michael Cera. You know the role I'm talking about.

Scott Pilgrim? Anything with him in it?

Ryan Reynolds as Detective Pikachu.

EVERYONE knows the right answer was Danny DeVito.

 

[Oats12345]

Everyone say it with me

Bre Larson as Captain Marvel was a awful choice

 

[HONKHONKTIME69]

Ching-chong Ding-dong as Spike in the Cowboy Beebop live-action

 

[Menotaur]

Jared Leto, Bladerunner 2049.

 

[Massa's Little Buckie]

Gal Gadot as WW.

 

[Menotaur]

Bladerunner 2049 was an epic film. If Jared Leto had been played by Sigourney Weaver, it would have added depth and would have been a masterpiece of a film.

 

[Valhalla]

The last encounter I had with bad casting or maybe just writing was Emily Browning as Laura Moon in American Gods.

 

[MrTroll]

Any time some retard American actor tries and fails to do a foreign accent. My favorite example is Keanu Reeves in that Dracula movie from the early 90's.

 

[Dom Cruise]

Idris Elba as Roland in Dark Tower was terrible, he's a good actor but the character of Roland simply does not at all work as black.

 

[Fluoxetine Man]

Bladerunner 2049 was an epic film. If Jared Leto had been played by Sigourney Weaver, it would have added depth and would have been a masterpiece of a film.

Considering Alien and Blade Runner take place in the same universe, might have been fun if Guy Pearce played a young Weyland.

 

[Disheveled Human]

Ryan Reynolds in Green Lantern, Topher Grace (Eric Foreman from That 70's show) as Venom.

 

[Raging Capybara]

John Wayne played a Mongol once.

 

[A man of no consequence]

Jim Carrey as Dr. Robotnik.
