6. Hayden Christensen

Oh, Hayden Christensen. He of course starred in the latter two Star Wars prequels which, ignoring their fan reception, were humongous box office successes, but in recent years he's deferred mostly to straight-to-VOD movies, with his last moderate box office success being 2010's thriller Takers.

Sadly, Christensen's reputation as a "bad actor" may have soured him with many agents and producers, even though his performance in 2003's Shattered Glass is proof plenty that he's a solid talent with the right material. Unfortunately, he's not had his fair share of that recently.

His three upcoming projects are all expected to go immediately to VOD, so there's nothing to see here.
