Casting Failures, Mess-ups, and Fumbles – The Many Issues Casting Directors Have

Johnny Depp – Tonto

Johnny Depp is certainly an interesting character, but The Lone Ranger was a huge bomb for Disney, costing about $200 million. Tonto was a Native American, but Captain Sparrow wasn’t the right “redface” for the job.

Chloe Grace Moretz – Carrie

A Carrie remake was unnecessary, and people didn’t want it, but Hollywood does what it does. However, Chloe Grace Moretz, as the leading lady, made it all the more surreal. The original actress was an outcast, and Chloe is beautiful, almost playing a bully herself. It just didn’t add up!
