8 Famous Actors Who Have Literally Never Been Good In A Movie

If we're talking about actors cast solely for their impeccable good looks, then Scott Eastwood is probably the male Jessica Alba. Granted, he also has the backing of his legendary pop Clint Eastwood, but inheriting his father's chiselled jaw and piercing eyes has done him a world of good.

Unfortunately Scott doesn't appear to have also received Clint's rough-hewn charisma, and practically every performance he's given in a major movie has been distractingly stiff. The most egregious examples include The Longest Ride, Suicide Squad, The Fate of the Furious and, most blatantly, Pacific Rim: Uprising.

He's starred in a few well-reviewed films, sure, but none of them were remotely because of his efforts. At least he's rarely cast as the lead despite his daddy's esteem, perhaps suggesting that his agent is aware he's better-suited for smaller, supporting roles where he doesn't have to speak or, you know, emote as much.
