Biggest Miscasts

[Pounder]

This has probably been mentioned on every page of this thread but Jessica Alba in Sin City.

Colin Ferrell- Any Movie
Kick-Ass guy- Godzilla
Matt Damon- Any movie as he ruins anything he is in
Jared Leto- Lord of War. He had zero chemistry with cage.
Ben Affleck- The Town. He almost ruined his own movie with that stupid accent. The guy can't act, I'm sorry Affleck defenders. He sucks and he always will be a bad actor.

You mean his stupid Boston accent?

It sounded so forced, even if he is from Boston. Came off so cheesy.

I remember when Karen Gillan first played Amy Pond on Doctor Who, people were complaining that her Scottish accent sounded, "SO fake!"

PS: At least Karen's not from Glasgow. I remember watching an interview between Grant Morrison and Ian Rankin. OK, I am sure that they were speaking English -- but you'd be hard pressed to prove it to anyone not from Glasgow!

But I can think of at least these off the top of my head where he was excellent:

8MM

Adaptation

Con Air

The Rock

+Gone in 60 Seconds??
+ Lord of War just watched this again recently this movie is a guilty pleasure of mine

Cage has feel off tremendously recently though

I really liked Nic's character in "The Sorcerer's Apprentice". They should've done a sequel; it would've been easier than another "National Treasure" due to Diane Kruger's TV schedule.

[Agent Bond]

Jared Leto- Lord of War. He had zero chemistry with cage.

Really? He was the best part of the movie.

I've never seen either, to be honest.

I couldn't imagine anyone other than Nic Cage in Wild at Heart, he's great.

[welcometothepartypal]

Nic Cage was great in Moonstruck.

On topic, has Kate Bosworth as Lois Lane been mentioned? She was very miscast IMO.

Oh man, Jack Black as Denham came to my mind instantly - I remember my Dad complaining that he was just so out of place and I have to agree.

Same, I was happy with Franco but Kunis just got worse as the film went on. I think she's great usually, but she was so miscast in that. I'd also agree with Depp as Willy Wonka (just doesn't fit the character for me) and Jessica Alba in...well, anything, but especially Sin City. Scarlett Johansson in The Island - I thought she was fine in that. Never really seen her miscast in anything.

My other picks would be:

- Liam Hemsworth - in The Hunger Games series
- Danny Glover - Predator 2
- I hate the movie, but since I was made to watch it I have to say: Pierce Brosnan - Mama Mia!
- Gonna get hate from the Nolan fanboys for this one: Christian Bale - The Prestige

[Steelmaker]

Keanu Reeves - The Devil's Advocate. Worst Southern accent since Nicolas Cage in Con Air. (Matthew Mcconaughey would've been a better choice)

[Kryptonic]

Nic Cage can and should be in every movie.

Bringing out the Dead was a solid in my book.

[donald.brown]

Roger Moore as James Bond.
Carroll Baker as Jean Harlow.
Michelle Williams as Marilyn Monroe.
Kate Beckinsale as Ava Gardner.
Edward Norton as The Hulk
Dakota Fanning in anything.
