10 More Awful Times Movie Actors Were Combined With CGI

4. Ioan Gruffudd - Fantastic Four

If there's one positive thing we can say about this CGI, it's that it was cut from the film, so a lot of moviegoers have not yet laid eyes on this utter monstrosity. If you were one of them... we're sorry.

So, what's actually happening here? Well, in the scene, Reed Richards is having a heart-to-heart with lover Sue Storm - perfectly normal relationship stuff. He then tells her that he thought she always wanted a stronger man, at which point, he transforms into Hugh Jackman's Wolverine, because, y'know, he's strong and that.

Or we should say he attempts to transform, because what he actually ends up looking like is a knock-off version of Hugh Jackman who might do Wolverine impersonations at kids parties. It looks fake as balls, and the impossibly smooth skin and hair textures - as well as the cheap and nasty "transform" effect - give the impression that this shot was never finished, which, considering that it was deleted, is likely.

Maybe the crew got halfway through doing it, realised they were creating an abomination, and gave up?

Danny has been with WhatCulture for over ten years, and is currently Doctor Who Editor and WhoCulture Channel Manager, overseeing all of WhatCulture's Whoniverse coverage. In 2022, he took charge of WhoCulture and has grown it into the biggest Doctor Who channel on YouTube, and one of the biggest Doctor Who communities on the web full-stop. He has been writing and video editing since his early teens, and first got a taste for content creation after making his own Doctor Who trailers, off the back of a burning obsession with the Matt Smith era of the show. Like many his age, he first got into Doctor Who with the 2005 revival, but has since gone back and fallen in love with the classic years too. If you need someone to recite every Doctor Who episode in order, or to give you a random factoid about the making of Gridlock, Danny is the person to ask!
