10 Actors Who Just Starred In Their Worst Movie EVER

10. Cate Blanchett - Borderlands

Cate Blanchett has one of the most enviable filmographies of any actor working today. In addition to her eight Oscar nominations and two wins, she's got no outright duds to her name, and even her least-regarded films have generally received mixed reviews at worst.

That was, at least, until Borderlands.

Many fans of the hit video game franchise raised their eyebrows when Blanchett was cast as the big-screen adaptation's version of Lilith, given that Blanchett is considerably older than the game version of the character, and simply seemed like an odd fit on paper. And by her own admission, Blanchett primarily accepted the role to get out of her lockdown funk in a particularly nasty period of the pandemic, rather than because she naturally gravitated towards the material.

While the actress brings a certain cocksure moxie to the role, there's nothing she can do to fix Borderlands' fundamental flaws. From its scrawled-on-a-napkin script to its lackluster action sequences and overall stapled-together feel, this is a dud that a performer as talented as Blanchett should've sniffed out a mile away. Then again, lockdown brain.
