10 Actors Who Just Gave Their Worst Performance EVER
10. Susan Sarandon - Blue Beetle
Look, nobody was expecting Oscar winner Susan Sarandon to give a career-defining performance in Blue Beetle, but her thoroughly mailed-in turn as villain Victoria Kord was not good.
Though the DC superhero film was largely praised for the chemistry of its focal cast, Sarandon is the single outlier, and while the script didn't really give her much worthwhile to do, she still can't bring herself to feign even a superficial level of interest.
Sarandon's line readings are distractingly flat throughout, giving Kord a narcotised, shot-with-a-tranq-dart vibe, ensuring she's one of the dullest and most forgettable superhero movie villains recent memory. It is as blatant as paycheck performances get.
Few are going to blame an actress of Sarandon's caliber for not full-assing it in a Blue Beetle movie of all things, but could she at least have half-assed it?
Instead, her lifeless, unfussed performance sticks out like a sore thumb among her decidedly more committed and enthusiastic co-stars.
