12 Upcoming Movies That Will Change Your Mind About Actors You Hate

5. Untitled Drake Doremus Project - Jamie Dornan

Fifty Shades Freed Jamie Dornan
Universal

Now that the Fifty Shades franchise is out of the way, Jamie Dornan can stop making piss-poor soft-porn and start getting back to the serious business of proving he's actually a talented actor. Because as limited as his performances in that trilogy were, he genuinely is good.

Now, he didn't prove that very well with his part in Robin Hood, but that whole project was a disaster and he was barely on screen anyway, so no judgement here. Let's just hope that he'll now enjoy a career trajectory that consciously seeks to cast off that role and possible typecasting (the same way Daniel Radcliffe and Robert Pattinson have).

If the next Drake Doremus film - in which he stars with Sebastian Stan and Shailene Woodley - lives up to its promise (and improves on Doremus' recent form), he could be on his way back.
