I’ll start with supergirl in the flash movie

she is supposed to be blonde I think kaley cucoao or whatever would have been perfect

Namor in the black Panther should have been Vin Diesel

There are a few they got right
Chadwick Boseman was great
The Rock as Black Adam also

Emma Watson in the beauty and the beast remake.

Bold move to cast someone who can't sing.

I hated the casting of Matthew Goode as Ozymandias in Watchmen.

They addressed this and made it very clear that anything is possible which was the point, I think.

Vague I know but, spoilers

Tom Hanks was horribly miscast as Forrest Gump.

The character is a 6’6” blonde haired blue-eyed college football player and professional wrestler. Hell, he even was the Creature from the Black Lagoon.

Would’ve been a much better movie with an appropriate-looking actor and staying more true to the book. Especially that awful pathetic ending that they made up.

Keanu Reeves in Bram Stokers Dracula.

Should've been Johnny Depp in that role. If Winona Ryder wouldn't have been a whore, we'd have got Hopkins, Oldman and Depp

Benjamin from The Graduate is just that...in the book. But its Dustin Hoffman as "the track star" and big man on campus.

But works in a bewildering way. Girls in the movie find him immediately attractive despite the fact the role was written as a Troy Donahue surfer dude. I guess the not obvious casting sometimes works, though unbelievable. It creates more amazement in the audience.

Tim Robbins as Nuke LaLoosh. Does anyone believe for one second that he has an ounce of athletic ability?

Willhem Dafoe as John Clark in 'Clear and Present Danger'. Liev Schreiber was more spot on to the character 'Sum of all Fears'.

Raymond Cruz as 'Ding' Chavez was perfect..

Fifteen post and no Maggie Gyllenhaal in The Dark Knight? It's usually the 1st or 2nd post in one of these.

My favorite for miscast actor is Martin Sheen as Robert E. Lee in Gettysburg.
