Can you think of anyone who has been severely miscast in a movie?
I'll start...

George Clooney in 'Batman & Robin'. Horrendous film. Clooney was the worst Batman ever.

Cameron Diaz in 'Gangs of New York'. What the hell were they thinking casting her in this role. Needless to say it didn't work.

Angelina Jolie in 'Alexander'.Forgetting for a moment that she was supposed to playing Colin Farrell's mother, despite only being about a year older than him, she just did not fit in this movie at all.
 
Angelina Jolie in most of her movies. Certainly Alexander (she looked at Colin Farrel like she wanted to hump him rather than be his mother) and this new one the Good Shepherd. Matt Damon looks to nice to be married to a woman like that.

Dont get me wrong I love her, I just wish she would find a better leading man.
 
Matt Damon in anything.

Hugh Grant in anything which doesn't have him playing a bumbling toff (the only character he can do well.)

Kate Bosworth in Superman Returns. Hopeless as Lois Lane.

Kate Beckinsale in Pearl Harbor. Give the job to someone who can act.
 
Jennifer Aniston in pretty much everything, but especially FrienRAB with Money. As for whoever it was mentioned Angelina Jolie, I agree totally, I love her, but she's at her best when there are no 'pretty' leading men as she looks like she wants to chew them up and spit them out. Also Halle Berry in Catwoman, what a terrible terrible film and cast
 
Keanu Reeves in anything apart from possibly Matrix...
Kevin Spacey in Under the Sea (in fact he used to be a hero of mine, and after that he went so weird.)
Andi McDowell in everything but especially Four Weddings.
Demi Moore in Ghost.
 
Morgan Freeman as Alex cross in Along Came a Spider/Kiss the Girls, from the books Alex is a much younger man with kiRAB!! Morgan ain't what i had in mind, someone like Denzel Washington more like
 
Tom Cruise in war of the worlRAB but that could just be because I don't like him. I think I would have enjoyed it a lot more if they cast someone likeable as the main character.
 
YES! She almost ruins that film for me with her nasal voice is it rainninggg, I hadn't nooottiiicceddd?; it's lucky the rest of the cast is so good.

For me, it's Nicholas Cage in Captain Corelli's Mandolin. Could have been a fabulous film that, aside from their butchering of the ending, but he was just wrong, wrong and thrice wrong...
 
Adrien Brody as the 'hero' in King Kong.

Jack Nicholson as The Joker in Batman. Spoilt the movie.

Jessica Alba as The Invisible 'girl' in Fantastic Four. Should have been Naomi Watts.

Kate Bosworth as Lois Lane - blame Kevin Spacey for that one. :eek:
