Mark Wahlberg as Elliott Moore (The Happening)
The Happening can be considered as one of the most disturbing suspense movies. However, M. Night Shyamalan’s decision to cast Mark Wahlberg in The Happening changed the film’s entire tone from a seriously disturbing to laugh-out-loud hilarious. No one could take environmental collapse seriously when Mark Wahlberg was the face of disaster, literally and figuratively. “You can’t blame me for wanting to try to play a science teacher,” Wahlberg said. “At least I wasn’t playing a cop or a crook.”
Tom Cruise as Jack Reacher (Jack Reacher)
In Lee Child’s best-selling novel about a huge military veteran vigilante traveling through the United States, Jack Reacher was the main character. Reacher was to have a weight of 6,5′′, 250 pounds, and a fifty-inch chest. Cruise, which scarcely met the mark at 5’7′′, was not precisely aiming for visual audiences.
