Kevin Costner in Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves
Who on earth would believe that a long-haired California boy like Kevin Costner is Robin Hood? The actor simply failed to bring justice to one of the most adored mythical characters in English lore. On top of that, this was the film that came after Dances with Wolves. That makes his appearance in this film even more difficult to watch. His portrayal of Robin Hood was a mix of Crash Davis from Bull Durham and Elliot Ness from The Untouchables. This was a bad film overall.

Ryan Reynolds In Green Lantern
When it comes to Hollywood, it is clear that superheroes are adored. Sadly, this does not seem to apply to Green Lantern. Director Campbell thought that he would get the same reception that Robert Downey Jr. did by casting a handsome and witty leading man. He turned out to be wrong since Ryan Reynolds does not have the same gravitas. In the end, he did a much better job by playing the wisecracking antihero called Deadpool. We are glad that he got to play a comic book character that suited him very well. He simply was not the right person to play the green crime-fighting hero.
