What do you think the worst casting mistake ever made is? Who butchered a potentially awesome character because of miscasting?
Worst Casting Mistakes of all Time?

Cary Grant ruined what woulld have been a very good movie, The Howards of Virginia (1940). He just wasn't cut out to play a character in costume.
John Wayne was horrendous as The Conqueror (1956).
Burt Lancaster as Massai in Apache (1954). Although his acting wasn't horrible , he looked nothing like an Apache.

Although it was only a B-movie to begin with, when Steve Carrell popped up as Uncle Arthur in "Bewitched" it went from being a potential 2 star flick to barely a half star. I didn't need many reasons to stop watching it before his appearance and he made feel stoopid for wasting a rental.
Edgar G. Robinson as the Pharoh in The Ten Commandments springs to mind .

Russell Crowe as some sort of CGI villain in Virtuousity. ****ing weird or what? This is Maximus for gawd sakes. I know he did this role pre L.A. Confidential and Gladiator but it's still puzzling that it's Russell Crowe playing this guy. A complete miscast.
Kevin Costner as Robin in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves...

Kevin Costner as Robin in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves...
Another choice would be Vince Vaughn in Psycho.

Vinnie Jones as Juggernaut
Vinnie:"I'm the Juggernaut bitch!"
Everyone else:"No Vinnie.You are not."
I think RDJ will be unbe-freakin'-leivable as the Ferrous Fellow.
His dry wit, and that moustache!
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang if you don't agree, just polish the swears and make it a little more linear and you've got a great character

I'm sure we've done this whole discussion before, but I don't mind repeating: Kirsten Dunst as Mary Jane in the Spiderman films. It didn't help that they didn't really give the character anything to do but be rescued either.

Can't disagree with most of what's already been posted, but I'll toss in Keanu Reeves in Coppola's DRACULA.

Hm, really? I have seen mostly positive response to Daniel Craig's turn as 007. I, for one, really liked Craig as Bond, and consider the latest bond film one of the best. I like the darker, grittier tone of the film, and I thought Craig brought a subtle intensity to the character that always seemed lacking when others played him...
