9 Actors Who Will Ruin 2018 Films

1. T.J. Miller - Deadpool 2

And finally, we have T.J. Miller, who will reprise his role as Weasel in Deadpool 2. Now, in fairness, this isn't necessarily Miller's fault, but it's an unavoidable fact that the persistent sexual harassment allegations recently leveled against him are going to end up clouding the movie's release.

Will Fox's refusal to recast the part affect Deadpool 2's box office or critical reception? Almost certainly not, but Miller is nevertheless going to be a major distraction every time he's on screen, especially as a good chunk of the audience will immediately start thinking about the allegations and his potential guilt.

If director David Leitch is smart, he'll downplay Miller's role as much as possible in post-production, effectively "future-proofing" the film in case the allegations are proven true in the future.

While this is all certainly unfair to Miller in the event that he's innocent, it's probably for the best to ensure that audiences aren't distracted by extenuating circumstances.

Still, it's going to be an undeniable talking point when the film hits cinemas, so fingers crossed his role isn't totally integral to the plot.
