There's willingly heading into a project with all the hope in the world, only to discover pretty early on that said hope may have actually been misplaced. Then, you have those actors who have been outright forced to walk onto a movie set they sensed was bad news from the beginning due to those dreaded contractual obligations.

And making matters worse when it came to Emily Blunt's forcing into the role of Princess Mary in god awful 2010 fantasy flick Gulliver's Travels, the British star was cost the chance of stepping into the MCU as Black Widow due to her contract with Fox.

As Blunt would reveal to Howard Stern:

"I take such pride in the decisions that I make, and they mean so much to me, the films that I do... I was contracted to do Gulliver's Travels. I didn't want to do Gulliver's Travels."

The shoot itself was still a fun one for Blunt, mind, with the talented soul stating when talking about the cast and crew that she "actually had a good time, a laugh, with all of them" before also depressingly confessing "...it irked my heart for it to have happened in the first place."
