21. Nina's Accent (And Nicholas Hoult's)

PBS Kids

With everyone seemingly obsessed with needlessly bashing Sophie Turner for her not perfect American accent, nobody seems to have noticed that Nina's accent - which I assume is supposed to be Polish duelled with the hybrid German/Irish of her father - is a billion times worse.

She's played by a young American actress TJ McGibbin, who appears to have had roughly 12 minutes of training on how to sound Polish. Needless to say, she's not very good at it, but she's a kid so it's not all that terrible.

Nicholas Hoult on the other hand should be lambasted for letting his accent wander back home to England. He's been playing Americans for years now and he shouldn't be doing that sort of thing now. But then maybe he was just railing against not having a particularly interesting part?
