Worst hollywood casting decision ever?

Peeta Mellark as portrayed by Josh Hutcherson in the series The Hunger Games.

Renee zelweger in Bridget Jones Diary. Those books were actually hilarious and now I’m embarrassed to have read them because she effed it up so bad.

Strongly disagree.

The Avatar movie was much worse than the Tilda casting.

Hayden Christensen and Natalie Portman as Anakin and Padme. They had horrible dialogue to work with, so I feel for them, but they didn’t even attempt to polish that turd. No chemistry and cringe-worthy performances.

Natalie Portman in Star Wars was cringy

Agreed, re: the chemistry. But they don't seem like chemistry-type actors. Much more pragmatic, non-emotional. The only thing I've seen her in that I really liked was An Ideal Husband. But I think Rupert Everett made her seem charming.

Give me a break. First, they made her gain weight Bridget didn’t have. The whole point of the book was how hilariously skewed this woman’s perceptions were. Second, her accent was an abomination. Third, her acting was even worse. She destroyed that character entirely

Wrong. Loved "Dances with Wolves".

Good God. I can't decide which was worse--his terrible acting or terrible directing.

+1 Thisis an epically bad take. Kevin Costner was surprisingly good in Bull Durham, but he’s a dreadful actor, and Dancing with Wolves was tied with Waterworld for the worst of the worst.

I disagree - Dances with Wolves was really good - when it came out. Doesn't hold up, but it was a good movie at the time. He was really good in Bull Durham. Also excellent in The Untouchables.

Agree with all of this, and would add Field of Dreams to your list.

Bob Odenkirk as the father in the most recent Little Women. Good god, that was painful to watch. And I love him.

Yes! That acting!! Omg. Painful.

Oooooh yeah. I visibly flinched remembering this one. I guess my brain tried to forget that.
