Vote for Ronda Rousey in fast 7.
Halle Berry and James Marsden we're terrible in these films.
I actually liked Anna Paquin as Rogue but it always bothered me she never had a southern accent.
As for bad casting, I'll never forget how ridiculous Colin Farrel looked as Alexander with that blonde hair.
Cuba Gooding Jr as OJ Simpson in American Crime Story,He was great in the role, but I still think he was a miscast for OJ.
Rick from the Walking Dead
Can't watch the show because of this casting. Loved the comic, can't stand the show.
This guy as Moriarty in Sherlock. He's awful.
Honestly I believe Van Damme has got range the pull off the nebbish character of neo in the first act.]Perhaps, but then I think you'll get a lot of people saying that they don't buy Van Damme or Yen as a reclusive, self-doubting, paranoid computer hacker.
I get what you're saying and there could have been a hundred different (potentially better) castings for Neo, but Keanu fit the role well enough to make it a decently enjoyable movie. Definitely not the worst cast.

I never bought Don Cheadle as War Machine. He really feels out of space. Too bad, he's a good actor, but miscast he is.
Orlando Bloom in Kingdom of Heaven
Ok maybe not the worst, but given the cast that surrounded him I felt he was way out of depth.
The guy who played King Arthur in that cancelled series with Eva Green. So bad the show was cancelled because of it.
An apoplectic decision that prefigured many poor decisions to come.
Wow. This is a surprise. I think he's perfect.
Rick from the Walking Dead

The show isn't that good, but good god her acting made it 10 times worse. Doesn't help she play this childish, reckless, rebellious teenager that for some reason always in the right in service to the story and her being the main character.
Holy shit, this thread is designed for fucking Highlander
...
Whoever thought casting someone like Malin Akerman as Silk Specter 2 in Watchmen was smoking some strong shit. Her strongest acting gig was that shitty Ben Stiller movie the Heartbreak Kid.
I've known people in person who have said he is great in it.Winner.
Bad writing aside (and it's pretty impressive to write in such a way where even Liam Neeson and Samuel L. Jackson come off crappy), Jake Lloyd's acting just made things far more unbearable. Like, if they'd plugged Haley Joel Osment in there, it would still be bad, but maybe it wouldn't be worse-than-Jar Jar bad.
Everyone else in the film is far more interesting than this blank slate of a character, although I think that's more the writing than anything else, since no one else has heard of this actress before.
Edward Furlong as John Connor (Terminator 2)
Ozymandias in the Watchmen movie. Terrible casting choice.

I love Keanu as much as the next guy but An actor with a martial arts background would have a better choice, like Van Damme orDonny Yen.
Maybe (not so) controversial, the movie is still a masterpiece but a better actor for the role would make it even better.
Halle Berry, James Marsden and Anna Paquin as Storm, Cyke and Rogue. So miscast. Especially when most of the others were so near perfect.
What the fuck were they thinking
Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange. Weird thing is I can't think of a replacement.
- Tilda Swinton in Doctor Strange

Basically every film with a Game of Thrones cast member in it. They've been cast because of their star power rather than being able to fit the character, and it shows.
Any time they cast a white person to play an Asian. This has happened for decades, but more recently:
- Tilda Swinton in Doctor Strange
That's not Bones.
So bad it was painful to watch.
I hadnt heard of it till recently but Vince Vaughn as Norman Bates!? Seriously??
