10 Actors Who Knew The Movie Was Doomed On Day 1

10. Channing Tatum - Jupiter Ascending

The Wachowskis' 2015 sci-fi blockbuster Jupiter Ascending was certainly an ambitious attempt at kickstarting a major new tentpole universe, albeit one that failed to strike much of a chord with critics or general audiences.

Despite praise for the visual effects and the memorable Chicago chase sequence, the script and Eddie Redmayne's Razzie-winning performance were largely panned, and it failed to recoup its $210 million at the box office.

Co-star Channing Tatum, who has never been one to mince words about his career disappointments, spoke out recently about the exhausting experience of shooting the film, which he knew wasn't coming together as soon as he started working on it. He said in an interview with Variety:

"Jupiter Ascending was a nightmare from the jump... It was a sideways movie. All of us were there for seven months, busting our hump. It was just tough."

Tatum also went on to criticise his own performance in the film, feeling that his work suffered from a lack of energy due to shooting four movies back-to-back without any time off.

That said, Tatum's performance in Jupiter Ascending is far from the worst thing about it.
