What is the worst movie or show casting you have seen?

Bonus: Who would you cast?

I watched a little bit of a comedy on Netflix with Simon Pegg where Kate Beckinsale plays his love interesting and like... no offense to Simon Pegg, but Kate Beckinsale almost looks too pretty to be a human being. It's just not plausible.

I was more bothered by that Netflix movie with Jason Segel and Rooney Mara. The combination of unusually dramatic acting and her being his love interest did not work for me.

I can't take Rooney Mara seriously since I found out her real name is Tricia

I'm glad I don't have that problem.

I actually like Bram Stoker's Dracula but casting Keanu Reeves as Jonathan Harker is... another level of wtf.

That is a hilariously bad performance too, especially the accent work, WTF was he even doing?

Have you seen him in "Much Ado About Nothing"? LOL. I actually love Reeves, but his attempt at the scheming yet laconic Don John comes out like verbal constipation. I've heard high schoolers with more comprehension of reading Shakespeare. And then to put him up against Kenneth Branagh (also the director, so hiring Reeves proves he wasn't totally on top of things!) and Emma Thompson is just *painful*.

Billie Piper as Fanny Price in the 2007 Mansfield Park. It didn't help that the character as written wasn't Fanny Price either. She was feisty. Dear god. But BP was so miscast.

I don't know who I'd cast instead. Someone I've never heard of ideally, which is kind of self-defeating. Sylvestra Le Touzel did pretty well in the 1983 series.

I refused to see that on the grounds of feistiness.

The entire cast of Netflix's Death Note was a horrible choice, with the exception of Willem Dafoe as Ryuk and possibly the guy who played L (he had potential, but the character was butchered by the script anyway).

I didn't mind the girl.

Re: What is the worst movie or show casting you have seen?

(Anonymous) 2017-10-02 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
Gah dammit, I KNOW it's gonna be bad but Dafoe is just so great at being creepy AND I love the guy they cast as L because of Atlanta, so against my own will I'm so tempted!!

I kinda liked the girl they cast for Mia, but they should've done more with her character. Ryuk and L were cast pretty well, but Ryuk should've shown up more and L's character shouldn't have been derailed like that.

A Little Princess. Sara needed to be more like book Sara and less "fiesty." I don't know how much is the writing and if that actress could pull off the character in the book. But I'd be less annoyed with that movie and accept more of the changes if they hadn't changed Sara so much.

Abigail Breslin in Final Girl. The movie is a guilty pleasure of mine, but she was seriously miscast as a beautiful young ingenue assasin-in-training.

Bette Davis' daughter in the first season of Feud. I don't know who I would have cast, but she came off as so "modern" that it felt like a fail casting.

Jennifer Lawrence as Mystique. The original actress was pretty good.

Good choice. Ugh. So much wrong with that, and the bad casting did not help. Now I need to rewatch the cartoon. So good and movie so bad.

I was surprised it wasn't the first post in the topic thread.

Johnny Depp as Grindelwald. The guy is supposed to be good looking, not a washed up bloated alcoholic with a bad haircut.
(I also really hated the casting for Remus and Sirius.)

Son of a bitch. I didn't even notice one of the actors was Depp.

He only appeared right at the end but considering he'll be there for any additional movies... blergh.
