10 Actors Who Hated Parodies Of Their Work

10. Neil DeGrasse Tyson Feels There's Room For Improvement At SNL

While known primarily more for his charismatic takes on the universe than his ability to hold his own with Hollywood heavyweights on the big screen, world famous astrophysicist, planetary scientist, and author Neil DeGrasse Tyson has actually found himself in front of a cinematic camera on a number of occasions over the years, popping up in the likes of Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice and Zoolander 2, to name a few.

With a presence and delivery as instantly iconic as DeGrasse Tyson's, it wasn't too hard to see why the studios behind said flicks were in a rush to pump his likeness into their incoming blockbuster offerings. However, said traits also left the star open to inevitable parody.

Ever the gent, though, when nudged on his reaction to Kenan Thompson's "Fox and Friends" Saturday Night Live impression of him in 2014, DeGrasse Tyson would admit, whilst speaking at the Time 100 gala, that if faced with SNL's executive producer Lorne Michaels, he'd declare:

"Lorne, I'm honored and flattered that you would think of representing me, particularly in that context on Fox News. But I think your comedians and actors have more accurately portrayed other people than he (Kenan) portrayed me. So there's some room for improvement."
