Celebrities who can't act

I know I'm in the distinct minority, but I don't think Meryl Streep is a good actor. I don't like her fake accents. Her acting is wooden.

Sure, the entire cast of the Sharknado franchise could be listed here but I thought we were sticking to A-list, maybe B-list, actors and actresses, some of whom have been nominated or awarded for acting.

Kristen Stewart is the worst of the worst. How is she still being hired?

Not Kevin Spacey. He’s such a ham. You can ALWAYS tell he’s acting!

My list:
- Emma Watson
- Orlando Bloom (this guy in particular has the Squint Stare and nothing else)
- Chris Hemsworth
- Emily Blunt
- Amber Heard

There are probably a few more but I can't think of anything right now. Bad actors, you tend to forget their names.

Wow, I wildly disagree with Emily Blunt on that list. I think she's outstanding and hilarious. To the bad acting list, I would add Angelina Jolie, Jessica Alba, Keanu Reeves (but I love him), Gwyneth Paltrow, Madonna, Lindsay Lohan, Katie Holmes, Ryan Phillipe, etc.

Hayden Christiansen is so hard to watch. It makes sense he isn’t really acting anymore. He’s terrible at it!

I actually think that was 90% the fault of George Lucas. Because Natalie Portman is a good actress IMO but her Padme was horrible. Even a good chunk of Ewan McGregor’s scenes were weird. I think they all gave what George asked for.

Keanu Reeves. Luckiest guy in Hollywood. An A list actor beloved by the industry who cannot act. His best “acting” was in Bill & Ted films. In his other films he just speaks solely with a flat affectation…which is pretty much how he talks in real life.

Julia Roberts is another one who appears to be herself onscreen. A lot of overexposed A list actresses are the same. Think: Jen Aniston.

+1. Especially agree about Julia and Jen.

Yes about Julia Roberts, she doesn't have much range.

I’m not sure how you can say Ben Affleck can’t act and fail to mention JLO. She is a terrible actor. Ben, is good about 50% of the time and has an Oscar to prove it.

Lopez was amazing in Out of Sight.

I'd pull Ben Affleck and Emily Blunt out of the "can't act" category.

Hayden C. is probably the most famous example.

TV is smaller stakes, but I think Jenna Fisher from The Office started out OK but was terrible by the end.
