Movie and casting directors have a very tricky job that takes a lot out of them as they try to make a productive film and please their audience at the same time. Bear in mind, actors and actresses are the foundation of movies and television series. So, should one error occur during the casting, it means the project could easily become a failure, the box office will suffer, and the executives’ jobs may be at risk. We have seen where they have done a great job in choosing the right people for certain positions and have proven to us they know how to do their jobs. However, there are other times when they leave us wondering what went down, but we really can’t be angry at them – they’re human, so they make mistakes like the rest of us (not you and me, of course!). Here in this article, you will see some films that had real potential but totally flopped as the casting was just not right…
These Movies May Be The Worst Selection To Date
Whether it was a drama, western, comedy, or superhero film, some very questionable casting choices led to disaster…
Cameron Diaz as Jenny Everdeane
Gangs of New York, a Martin Scorses film, is a long drama that contains many intriguing sequences, interesting characters, and lots of “loud” violence. One of the film’s main characters, Jenny Everdeane, who played as a pickpocket and prostitute, was played by Cameron Diaz. Even though Diaz is a great actress, we have to say this choice was a complete failure and a sore to the eyes of those who were looking forward to the movie. The first error that stood out very loudly was her accent that kept slipping at every other minute and her lack of energetic zeal like that of the other characters. There was no spunk from her acting. Diaz is mainly a comedic actor who would like to be matched with Leonardo DiCaprio and Daniel Day-Lewis’s likes but may have to take second place. She did a poor job at a film everyone thought would be perfect.
