10 Actors Who Were Cut Out Of Movies For Ridiculous Reasons

7. Ben Affleck - Elektra

Ben Affleck€™s dislike of Daredevil is well-known by now, and he claims it€™s the only movie he regrets making; harsh words from the star of Gigli and Surviving Christmas. During the dark period of his career, Daredevil was his only real hit, so the threat of a sequel loomed over him. He got a lucky break when the studio decided instead to make an Elektra spin-off, but since it starred his girlfriend Jennifer Garner he agreed to do a small cameo playing Matt Murdock. This cameo was teased heavily before the film came out, but since Affleck was considered damaged goods at the stage they felt his tiny scene was too distracting, so they cut it out. So fans were not only disappointed the movie was a total piece of crap, but also because the promised cameo didn€™t make the final cut. His scene is now available online and given his recent comments about the role, it's a safe bet Affleck wasn€™t that disappointed it was snipped. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4kCroRMLX0
