10 Actors That Totally Underprepared For A Movie Role

Scottish acting powerhouse Ewan McGregor has proven time and time again that he's more than capable of mastering another accent when bringing a performance to life on-screen.

Despite utterly nailing everything from a smooth RP, to an American twang, though, one particular accent McGregor wasn't quite as confident with ultimately left him with a bit of egg on his face during the recording of a little Disney remake by the name of Beauty and the Beast.

As the star himself would explain on The Graham Norton Show a few years back, the fact McGregor had been married to a French woman for twenty years left him feeling foolishly confident about his ability to unleash a french sounding voice as Lumière.

Unfortunately for him, though, the folks capturing the Scot's voice didn't want the "rrr" sounds he was delivering throughout, leaving him sounding entirely Mexican as he then again attempted to speak the candelabra lines.

In fact, his delivery was so disastrous, the star would confess to having to go back and re-do some of his lines in order to cover up his initial lack of proper prep.
