10 Worst Comic Book Castings in Film History

3. Jessica Alba As Sue Storm in Fantastic Four

Let€™s all face it; the studio cast Jessica Alba as Sue Storm because she is foremost among Hollywood sex symbols. Fan-boys cheered when Alba appeared naked (although invisible) on screen, and she certainly turned heads in her tight, Fantastic Four body-suit. Any time an actress gets cast for sex appeal, the results are usually deadly. Look at the most recent outing in the Transformers franchise? Michael Bay casts women that are drop-dead gorgeous in a Hollywood way, but his alternative to a cocky Megan Fox was a Victoria€™s Secret model that looks both anorexic (I€™ve seen pictures where her rib cage scarily sticks out) and can€™t act to save her life. Seriously, when your naturally British accent sounds fake, something is wrong. But I digress, back to Jessica Alba. Wait, I forgot, we€™ve pretty much talked about everything that is important€”how she looks. Sue Storm needs someone that can pull off intelligent, not just cheesy WB/CW acting. Someone that can pull off blonde a little better would have helped as well. There are plenty of actresses out there that could do well as Sue Storm. Who They Should Have Cast: Anna Torv of €œFringe€
