Kevin Spacey as Bobby Darin (Beyond The Sea)
Apparently, Kevin Spacey so liked Bobby Darin that he tried to get a biography of the pop artist, which passed away at 37. Finally, Lionsgate was greenlit, but Spacey did not allow any actor other than himself to perform Darin. He emphasized especially manufacture and management. Although Spacey is praised for his show, everyone agrees that it is odd and shrill to see a 40-year-old portray a role in his 20s. Particularly in his 20-year-old junior love scenes with Kate Bosworth.
Jackson Rathbone and Nicola Peltz (The Last Airbender)
Back in the day when M. Night Shyamalan chose to take over Avatar: The Last Airbender, it was on a record cold streak. Shyamalan blamed adults saying that they don’t understand the film he made. But, his decision, like Jackson Rathbone and Nicola Peltz, to whiten the tale in the Asian parts did not impress his audience.
