10 Actors You Won't Believe Have Never Made A Sequel
2. Ben Affleck
Okay, so he's reprised his role from Chasing Amy in a tiny capacity for another Kevin Smith movie, but that was more of a cameo appearance and the movie wasn't actually a sequel in the usual sense. And, yes, we also know that Affleck will soon star in Batman Vs. Superman, which is a sequel to Man of Steel, but that movie didn't star Affleck, so it doesn't really count. Right: now that we've got all that out of the way, then... Given that most people tend to see the words "Ben Affleck" and "bad actor" as synonymous,, it's something of a surprise to learn that this reformed star has never made a fully-fledged sequel to one of his own movies. You'd have expected him to have made at least two or three awful follow-ups, though, right? Nope: he didn't even come back to play Jack Ryan again after The Sum of All Fears. And Daredevil? Don't get us started. If He Had To Make A Sequel? Well, his first sequel is going to be the follow-up to Batman Vs. Superman, so there's no much need for speculation on this one.
