10 Recent Movies That Wasted INCREDIBLE Casts
10. Argylle
Matthew Vaughn's Argylle certainly didn't leave audiences wanting for a star-studded cast, for all of its deficiencies elsewhere, the bases were positively stacked.
The spy action-comedy counts among its roster Henry Cavill, Bryce Dallas Howard, Sam Rockwell, Bryan Cranston, Catherine O'Hara, Dua Lipa, Ariana DeBose, John Cena, Samuel L. Jackson, Rob Delaney, Richard E. Grant, and Sofia Boutella.
And yet, despite having such acting firepower behind it, Argylle is a convoluted, frustrating mess of a film - at once frantic and shockingly boring, hurtling through a shoddy sub-Kingsman spy romp while leading to one of the most predictable plot twists of the year.
It didn't help, of course, that large swaths of the cast appear for just a few scenes a-piece, especially Henry Cavill, despite him receiving prime placement in the movie's marketing.
For a film with two Oscar winners (Rockwell, DeBose) and three nominees (Cranston, Grant, Jackson) to its name, what a lousy outcome.
