There couldn’t have been a better Zuck. He portrays the smug, sarcastic, smart guy great. Anything else is a miscast.
I have trouble imagining a better Columbus in Zombieland. Rosenberg was born to play neurotic characters.

Yeah if you are a fan of the books, this one is completely ridiculous.

John Clark needed to be like an Alan Ritchson type (but older and more weathered)

Liev Schreiber was closer to Clark in “Sum of All Fears”.

Brad Pitt as Achilles in Troy

Angelina Jolie as Clover in The Good Shepherd

I put this with either Cruise as Lestat and Cruise as Reacher. Not what I envisioned from the source material, but a good performance nonetheless.

Dane DeHaan in Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets. He was actually 31 at the time, but looked like he was 19. Not that it would have saved the movie, but the part called for a seasoned-looking man akin to Han Solo. DeHaan could have easily passed as a high school kid.

I had high hopes. The trailer looked so good.

Ya'll are here complaining about Dafoe playing Clark, when the studio decided to make Michael B Jordan him in 2021.
