10 Controversial Castings in Forthcoming Movies There have many other movies that have had bad casting, although the movie did alright. There are many factors that determine the success of the film, and casting is one of the major factors. It spoils the movie’s magic if it goes wrong. What happens later on is another story. There is a lot of risk even if there’s one actor that is the black sheep in the cast.
As mentioned above, what happens later on is another story. That being said, there were some very astonishing and weird castings that turned out to be a huge hit. Some considered as irreplaceable. The positive casting selection’s best example is of the late Heath Ledger as the Joker. Nobody was certain about him being able to do the role justice. But when the movie released, the audience was blown away. The negative casting selection’s best example is of Ryan Reynolds as Green Lantern. His renowned presence was not right for the role of DC’s superhero and the movie was a major flop. His role, however, for Marvel’s Deadpool can speak otherwise.
Casting is a big gamble. If there is a right cast, the acting can make up for any other error in the film. Even the household names can flop. The casting has to be done thinking more than hundreds of time before the final decision.

Reason being, that he is taking over from Jason Statham. The Transporter is the movie that launched Jason Statham’s career as an action hero. Not only that, but Jason has also been consistent in the movie series. He is now regarded as one of the ideal action heroes, putting him in the list among legends. Ed on the other hand, will be starring in a reboot of the series. The movie is titled, The Transporter Refueled. Moving from the TV screen to the big movie screen is always a positive step.

...enshoff et al. (2009), it is important to mention that films that are produced by Hollywood are first and foremost strictly business. To Asian viewers, it may be easier to detect these faulty portrayals, but whether Hollywood casts a Korean to play a Japanese role, or a Chinese to play a Korean, it is all the same because Hollywood uses what works to sell its product well.
Hollywood’s diversity problem is well-known; however, the extent might be surprising to most Americans. According to a 2014 report by the Center for the Study of Women in Television, Film & New Media, found that females comprised only 30% of all speaking characters among the top grossing films of 2013. (Lauzen, 2014) However, minority women faired far worse than their Caucasian counterparts. As a matter of fact, if one looks at the numbers even female characters from other world’s were as better represented in film than some minority women; the numbers are as follow for women: Caucasian (73%), African American (14%), Latina (5%), Asian and other world tied (3%). (Lauzen, 2014) If the lack of representation were not enough consider a 2009 study which found that when minority groups are portrayed on television the portrayal tends to be negative. (Alexandrin, 2009) A study by Busselle and Crandall (2009) found that the manner in which African-Americans are portrayed, often as unemployed criminals, tends to have an influence on the way the public perceives African-American’s lack of economic success. Furthermore, the news media does an equally poor job in the ways that African-American’s are presented; according to the same study while 27% of Americans were considered “poor” in 1996 the images of America’s “poor” being presented by news media was heavily Black (63%). (Busselle & Crandall, 2002) Today, this can be seen in the way that African-American victims of police brutality are depicted in the media. Even when African-Americans are murdered at the hands of police for minor and non-violent offenses (e.g. Mike Brown, Eric Gardner, and Tamir Rice) they are often portrayed as thugs, criminals, and vandals. What’s more, seve...

A perfect movie character is one that the audience can form a complex, personal relationship with in the short time that a movie is viewed, displaying the art of acting and drama perfectly. When the thought of lovable movie characters is brought up, Johnny Depp will almost always be apart of the discussion. With his quirky, lively attitude which blends perfectly into roles that should not have soul, Johnny Depp is truly a one-of-a-kind actor. With a spectrum of characters Depp has played, ranging from Edward Scissorhands in the movie Edward Scissorhands (1990), to playing his role in 21 Jump Street (1987), up until the recent Pirates of the Caribbean (2003), he is involved in roles that “only the likes of Depp can pull off” (“Johnny Depp”, 1). Although coming from rebellious teenage years and many “ups and downs of his personal life” (“Johnny Depp Biography”, 2), the actor has become one of the great faces of the movie scene of his generation. Depp's success, which some could contribute to luck, was carved out of his pure talent for expressing raw emotion through the characters he played and his free-bird, wild attitude in his early years. His talent and spirit changed the face of acting and of rebelling. Johnny Depp's early life, countless classic works, and personal actions created a persona that molded a new face of acting and of free-spirit for his generation.
With a good cast, this will attract and push audiences away just based off of the cast. For example, reviews on the movie “Ride Alone.”, this is a terrible movie as far as comedy goes but since the stars in the movie are really famous for being funny, the movie is selling well just based off of that. This is unfair. But movies that are actual funny but aren’t as popular because the actors and actresses have an unfair ...
...movie which demonstrates his acting ability is when his character enters cerebral palsy mode as he struggles to get into his vehicle and get home. Throughout this film audiences see DiCaprio push his boundaries as an actor. He is truly successful in drawing viewers in with his strong and believable performance.
