10 Actors Who Just Gave Their Worst Performance EVER

6. Glenn Close - Heart Of Stone

Glenn Close can almost do no wrong, and though she's starred in many movies blatantly below her station in the pursuit of a paycheck over the years, she's never shown as little enthusiasm as she did in Netflix's recent action-thriller Heart of Stone.

The Gal Gadot-fronted genre flick features a minutes-long surprise cameo appearance from the eight-time Oscar nominee, and while her presence can't help but perk the movie up for a fitful moment, Close hasn't ever seemed this disinterested in a role.

Close plays the King of Diamonds, one of the leaders of a global peacekeeping outfit called The Charter, and admittedly isn't asked to do much more than stand around and spout a few pages of exposition before being summarily killed off.

All the same, Close reads her dialogue with all the enthusiasm of someone double-checking their shopping list aloud - a mere obligation in order to get on with the rest of her day.

Granted, this isn't a good movie by any stretch, but Close's anodyne performance made her seem seconds away from falling asleep mid-take.
