10 Actors Who Got Paid To Do Pretty Much Nothing

10. Snoop Dogg – The Addams Family

2019's Addams Family failed to bowl over viewers, but even the harshest critics praised the excellent cast. Oscar Isaac feels like he was born to portray Gomez. Charlize Theron nails Morticia. Finn Wolfhard performs the impossible by making Pugsley an interesting character for once.

But the one casting choice that perplexed everyone was Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr. AKA Snoop Dogg (Yes, his real name is Calvin.) The legendary rapper may not be the first person one would think of when casting for The Addams Family, but Snoop is so effortlessly charming, he could play almost any role effortlessly.

So, who was he cast as? Cousin Itt - the bewhiskered Addams who speaks in high-pitched gibberish. This means a casting director hired a musician with one of the most recognisable voices on the planet, and cast him in a role where his speech is indecipherable. Weirder still, his name was used to promote this pointless reboot despite the fact Snoop never says a line that’s comprehensible to the human ear.

Although it's not clear how much Snoop was paid for the role, any amount is too much considering how redundant his performance is.
