10 Actors Who Just Gave Their Worst Performance EVER

The trailers for action rom-com Ghosted didn't exactly suggest a classic in the making, but in the very least it'd surely benefit from the tried-and-test romantic chemistry between stars Chris Evans and Ana de Armas, right? Right?

Except, despite the duo demonstrating their appealing dynamic in the first Knives Out, here there's not a scrap of that same allure, with the pair feeling bafflingly mismatched.

It doesn't help at all that Evans is woefully miscast as the unassuming farmer Cole, yet the same can't be said for de Armas, who on paper should kill as secret CIA operative Sadie.

As resoundingly terrible as the dialogue is, it's shocking that neither Evans nor de Armas can bring any life to their respective characters at all, in turn giving the most charmless performances of their careers.

The lesson here? You can put two hot people together, but don't expect fireworks without an at least halfway passable script.

Given that Ghosted's screenplay had strong "written by ChatGPT" vibes from start to finish, it shouldn't be too surprising that it led both stars to career-worst work.
