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

5. January Jones

Though January Jones was perfectly cast as Don Draper's ice-queen Stepford Wife Betty on Mad Men, the actress hasn't managed to parlay her TV success into a compelling movie career.

Despite appearing in a number of critically acclaimed movies, she's either left no lasting impression whatsoever or, worse still, left only a black hole of charisma in her wake, as with her widely-reviled performance as Emma Frost in X-Men: First Class.

She certainly fits the physical requirements of the role, but makes Frost less a seductive mutant and more a bland fembot entirely devoid of personality. She was at least trying to act in 2015's war drama Good Kill, though co-star Ethan Hawke ran circles around her, and she never rose to be anything more than a generic wife character.

And that's probably what Jones is likely to be confined to playing for the rest of the career: the beautiful wife who appears only in forgettable, unnecessary subplots.
