7 Most Ridiculous Movie Audition Tapes From Famous Actors

7. Jessica Alba Auditions For Get Smart

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tiyfW0SRsIE There are some actors and actresses who would have a better chance of landing a role if, instead of actually auditioning, they simply sent a cardboard cutout of themselves, in the nude, to casting agents. But logic and talent be damned, some people are going forgo that plan, choosing instead to try to become...ACTORS. Jessica Alba should have planted herself into that first category, along with the Megan Foxes of the world. But as this audition tape proves, she was high on her skills thanks to her role in the blockbuster Fantastic Four movies. But the part of Sue Storm didn't call for much in the way of comedy chops. Get Smart, on the other hand, deemed that a bit of a requirement. Ultimately, Anne Hathaway landed the role, which may or may not be a good thing depending on your view of Hathaway as a comedic actor. Regardless, it's damn near impossible to think that Alba playing off Steve Carrell would have been any less awkward.
