10 Dumbest Miscastings In Recent Movies

This one always seemed like a recipe for disaster. It's clear that Gal Gadot was cast due to her being a big name, and it would seem no-one stopped to think as to whether she was remotely right for the part of the Evil Queen, who was a fantastic villain in the original Snow White animation.

To be blunt, Gadot is a deeply limited performer. She's good as a warm, likable action hero, such as Wonder Woman or Gisele in the Fast & Furious films, but she just doesn't have the range or gravitas to realize this villain in all her hateful glory. She's just too likable, both on-screen and off-screen, to convince as a villain. Gadot previously fell into a similar trap when she gave a weak performance as a toxic, self-centered heiress in 2022's Death on the Nile. 

Furthermore, the whole idea is that this queen is so vain she can't deal with not being the fairest in the land... and it's hard to buy one of Hollywood's biggest sex symbols being worried about that. 

Gadot's performance was, indeed, appallingly bad and arguably the worst thing in an already dire movie. Quite frankly, she deserves to get a Razzie nomination for her work in the film. Then again, it's inexplicable that she was cast in the first place; wasn't Eva Green available? She'd have been perfect for this part.
