  • Can you imagine anyone else but Keanu Reeves playing Neo from The Matrix? No, it would be a huge ask, but in the world of Hollywood where sequels and reboots are common, iconic roles eventually have to be recast.
    If casting and production teams are lucky, the original actor will reprise their role, but that usually doesn’t happen because of numerous reasons such as scheduling conflicts, an actor's death, or creative differences.
    Replacing actors for an iconic role is tricky business and they run the risk of angering loyal fans. Here are actor replacements that totally ruined the movie.

    The whole thing with Michael Gambon playing Dumbledore actually worked quite well. For me, it's just like the way we tend to perceive our grandparents as we age: when we're children, they're sweet, patient and adorable, but when we become teenagers, on top of that, we also start to notice their flaws and bitterness, just like in every human being. That's why I think the different interpretation made a lot of sense.

      Honestly, the one thing that bugs me was how many people hated Berry's Catwoman, at least from the "downtrodden woman dies and gets reborn with superpowers" angle, while praising the Batman Returns version for being THE EXACT SAME STORY AND CHARACTER, except shoved into a Batman story. There are plenty of reasons to dislike the film (though I admit to considering Catwoman a guilty pleasure), but "it did the character and her origin all wrong" angle is complete buffalo biscuits.

      @@nicholasfarrell5981 Catwoman never died and had superpowers in the comics. She's just an awesome thief with a cat fetish. In the second Batman movie the producers managed to pull this off, because it was relatively original and new (for the movies) and Michelle Pfeiffer was great in that role, but the Catwoman movie just copies that, and not in a good way. Instead of the dark character, whose near-death-experience breaks down all the walls she has put up around herself we get a woman who dies, is reborn and then dresses up like a slut.

      Yeah this video is awful. The people who made this have no idea how much a good director can do for a film. A lot of great actors would seem to give very poor performances if the director doesn't do a lot to work with them. Also the script in a lot of these movies completely sucks which isn't helping anyone. A good example of this is the Star Wars prequels which have a bunch of great actors like Natalie Portman, Liam Neeson, and Christopher Lee but the script ruins their performances. I can't say much about the direction of those movies, it was pretty average and George Lucas could've done a better job but I respect his vision.

      Kilmer´s performance and Clooney´s performance have no difference...The two performances can be compared to circus clowns..The entire production of both movies were cheap copies from 1 and 2 Burton`s film direction . Then is not so much the actors fault.. and once you´ve seen the Chiristian Bale Batman movies , you won`t see the others never again... a darker character like the original comics

    Really Michael Gambon? He was fantastic as Dumbledore, sure he didn't play the role the same as Harris but he did join the franchise as it was becoming more adult and darker and his version of Dumbledore worked well with the franchises changes. Also I don't think even Harris could rival Gambon's fantastic performance in the Half Blood Prince

      When I first saw Prisoner of Azkaban I really disliked Gambon, but now I like him a lot more than Harris. Harris' Dumbledore was an old, calm, wise and collected wizard (more like a Merlin), whereas Gambon showed more of the incredible power of Dumbledore hiding underneath the old man. He had more wit, more agression (in a good way) and more presence.

      In my personal opinion, it's all about there writing and rarely about the actors. Most actors in Hollywood are pretty decent, but if you have a bad script, it appears they can't act because you don't believe what they're saying. Writing, writing, writing. Extremely important. The reason why most of these are called out is the expectations of the previous dynamic between the original cast didn't align with what the audience wanted/expected. But again, mostly it's all writing (just my opinion).

      Søren Stilling I liked him as Captain Boomerang in Suicide Squad and as the bad guy in Jack Reacher.
      In fact his role in Jack Reacher really begs the question of why wasn't he cast as a Terminator instead. He played the silent menacing antagonist who can fake acting totally normal to get closer to his target before killing them really well.
      But as Kyle Reese, he was easily one of the worse parts of the movie, though the script did him no favors either.

    Honestly, Val Kilmer was an excellent Bruce Wayne. His scenes of character exploration are way better done than prior films and really show whom bruce wayne, or batman "behind the mask" really truly is. We get this well with michael keaton when he is with catwoman/selina kyle, and the one joker scene in "batman 1989" when he uses the iconic line "have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight" but otherwise scenes feel really filler-ish. The problem? Val Kilmer in the suit-while feeling different, doesn't sound very intimidating and almost acts like he doesn't want to be batman.
    I'd say it was intentional giving the title "batman forever," his moment of "I'm going to retire" then maybe if we actually got the fully uncut version we deserve it'd help. Still, I think his delivery is very lacking while in the costume.
    Kilmer is also known for being a problem actor to work with, he dropped out of playing batman saying it'd do nothing to further his career. I would've preferred him in batman and robin if it'd gone "batman 1989+batman forever" like it should've in tone (and was the plan for a 5th film would it have been made before the year one idea shot up and then endlesss development hell until begins came up).

But I think it wouldn't be for long to be that bad. James Cameron said he is working for a third final film. It would automatically consider the 3rd, 4th and 5th as canons in which he didn't directed. The story will continue with the 2nd film, so it will be a true 3rd Cameron Terminator film. I just hope it will be successful.

If anything he ignores things on a small scale, like when he didn't want to talk to Harry at the Order of the Phoenix headquarters. He gets angry with his enemies (Barty Crouch and his eyes of pure fire, as described) but even then he is always calm, collected. There is hardly ever a part in the book where his frustrations lead to him having an angry outburst, or scolding someone unnecessarily. In the movie the new dumbledore does it in cases like, "Don't you all have studying to do?!" After a scene in the great hall, and just his tone overall, sometimes when addressing the great houses is a different character then the one in the books.

Like Evie's sister or Rick's sister etc. It would have only taken Rick 2 lines to explain it all away. Perhaps they could have even gotten Ms. Weisz to do a "phone take" where she talks to Rick and mentions what she is doing/wishes she could be there etc. and something like "how is my sister/cousin/secretary (Maria Bello) making out?"
      REPLACING Rachel took me right out of the movie. SHE WASN'T RACHEL WEISZ!! How insulting that the director and producers would think we would buy that!! Plus Alex O'Connell was way too old in this sequel. He looked 28 to 35 and that would put Rick at what, 55 to 65? Yeah OK. Nope.

    It appears the creators of this video are under the impression that Michelle Pfeiffer was the first Catwoman.

    To be fair Joel Schumacher has come out and rightfully blamed the studio for wanting a toy friendly Batman. And after seeing some of his other works I believe it.

    I kinda feel bad for Ben Affleck; I don't think he's a bad actor, but he is known for a lot of bad roles and character portrayals.

      He is tolerable in State of Play and The Town... but otherwise he is pretty bad.

      mydogskips2 sorry to disagree, but he should stay behind the camera. His acting is wooden and I cringe for him when he tries to act. A movie star he ain’t.

    I liked Lena Headey as Sarah Connor, shame that show didn't last.

      Agree. Wish that they had developed the series more. Enjoyed Summer Glau's character.

    A majority of these mentioned weren't because the actors replacing them were bad, it's because the scripts or the CGI were horrible. The original actors were smart not to sign on to the sequels because they knew better.

    And Halle Berry wasn't Catwoman, but A Catwoman, it being explained that there could be more than one, and she wasn't Selina Kyle
