10 Actors Whose Credibility Suffered The Most In 2015
2. Bill Murray
Everybody loves Bill Murray, right? Except, well, maybe not, given that his most recent filmic venture - comedy caper Rock the Kasbah - has been deemed the "biggest flop of 2015" by Forbes. That's some mean feat, given that Murray has remained a popular staple of the cinema for decades. Nobody fancied a movie about a rock promoter trying to score big in Afghanistan, apparently. Who'd have thought? The movie drew terrible reviews and grossed just $3 million on $15 million. That's damning news for Bill Murray, of course, because even his mediocre comedy ventures usually manage to make their money back at the box office. Murray also featured in Cameron Crowe's Hawaii-set disaster, Aloha, which was also a huge flop (though his role was small), and his long-awaited Netflix special, A Very Murray Christmas, failed to charm the critics and was met with mixed reviews. Hopefully his turn as Baloo in next year's The Jungle Book remake can hopefully bring him back into the light...
