Most miscast roles?

(Anonymous) 2026-03-18 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
What roles do you think were horribly miscast?

Re: Most miscast roles?

Ben Schwartz for movie!Sonic and Keanu Reeves for movie!Shadow. Ben just has a same-character voice across his roles and Keanu sounded too old for Shadow.

the musical version of the Producers. Who thought Matthew Broderick could play a role written for Gene Wilder? pathetic.

Ben Platt in Dear Evan Hansen. I get that you were famous for the role on Broadway and it is a nepo baby casting....but you do not look remotely like a highschooler.

At least it gave us an amazing Jenny Nicholson video.

Jared Leto as the Joker. Keanu Reaves in Bram Stoker's Dracula. Great movie, but he's awful.

Jesse Eisenberg in Batman v. Superman. Almost everyone in that movie really.

Hugo Weaving as Elrond. Elijah Wood as Frodo too, though not quite as much as Weaving. Gimli had issues, but that was the writing and I think he could have pulled off a book-faithful version.

I really like Keanu Reeves as a human being and enjoy performances when he acts within his range, but he's NOT Oscars caliber, I'm sorry.

really? I thought he was a great Frodo, who would you have picked?

Someone older. Frodo's age in the books was the same age as Bilbo in the Hobbit. He was fine, I do love him. I just would have gone with someone a little older, closer to middle aged.

Johnny Storm in the most recent fantastic 4. The guy already gave me really creepy vibes, and I was not happy to see him in that.

Huh, I thought he was good. There is something about him that feels slightly off to me too (genuinely no idea what/why), but it didn't get in the way of him selling the character for me. And I felt like his dynamic with Sue actually felt like a real sibling dynamic, which is something hollywood rarely gets right.

Gadot Wonder Woman. Even before the current events that made it a mockery, she didn't have and couldn't have the body type and she wasn't and isn't nearly a good enough actor to do the role justice.

She had moments when I thought she pulled it off (like the fight in Batman v Superman), but I agree.

This was a while back, but Bette's daughter in Feud: Bette and Joan. Everything else was perfect. The daughter literally acted like she was out of place.

John Wayne as Genghis Khan.

George Clooney as Batman/Bruce Wayne in Batman and Robin. The entire movie was a trainwreck with multiple things what-the-fucking it up, but Clooney, which seemed like dream casting on paper, was so bad. I will give some of the blame to Shumacher, but it's like Clooney couldn't get out of his own way. There were other characters badly cast, but that was the most egregious in my book.

Both Remus and Sirius in the HP movies. Both were far too old.

And realizing that drinking water didn't make it go away.

Have you gargled with warm salt water, nonny?

I've been in denial that allergy season has started.

A sore throat is always how a cold starts for me, so I feel you. Hopefully you get through it quickly, anon.

Just hoping it isn't strep. I get that about 5 times a year.

Agreeing with previous anon. It sounds like the start of a cold. Take your zinc and vitamin C!

Yeah, that's how the cold/flu always starts for me, but now I also have to worry if it's COVID again. :(

Most sore throats are viral, which means Betadine gargle is pretty effective if you have that where you live.
