Nothing ruins a movie like actors we can’t stand. No matter how compelling a film looks, the mere presence of these actors ruins the entire experience for us. 

A recent online discussion asks which actors we despise so much that we won’t watch a movie with them in it. Here are the top responses. 

Mark Wahlberg

Mark Wahlberg’s personality has already rubbed some filmgoers the wrong way.

Add in his past regarding hate crimes, and it’s no wonder why he’s an actor people can’t stand. 

James Franco

In the past, James Franco was a member of the frat pack alongside Seth Rogen and others. 

With the rise of the #MeToo movement, his past allegations rose, turning people off of his movies. 

Jesse Eisenberg

“He has this kind of nerdy maniac vibe about him in any role he plays,” says one commenter.

“I tried to watch that new show with him, but I had to stop because I just could take more Jesse Eisenberg.”

Amy Schumer

While Schumer has enjoyed success with a Comedy Central series and several major films, she’s not perfect.

A common critique is accusations of her stealing jokes from other comedians. 

Dane Cook

Speaking of joke stealers, many mention Dane Cook as another actor people can’t stand for that very reason.

As of late, Cook isn’t winning fans because he began dating his now fiance when she was 18. 

John Travolta

While John Travolta may have been in beloved classics like Grease and Face/Off, some can’t stand him.

The biggest reason? Scientology. 

Steven Seagal

Seagal is best known for his roles in various 80s and 90s action movies

As time has passed, Seagal is now best known as a poor actor and an even worse human being.  

Jennifer Lopez

The musician and actress has her fans but also her detractors. 

One comment mentions that she comes off as a threatening bully and is never viewed as sympathetic. 

James Corden

For many, the former late-night talk show host would top a list of actors we can’t stand. 

Despite his attempts to come off as relatable, most find him to be the exact opposite. 

Jared Leto

The 30 Seconds to Mars frontman and actor has his moments, but to most, he is incredibly creepy.

People say he’s also incredibly pretentious; many believe he runs a cult. 

Ezra Miller

Best known for his work as Barry Miller, aka the Flash, in the DC Universe, Ezra Miller seemed like the next big thing in superhero movies.

In 2022, he had several run-ins with the law and was arrested for assault and being accused of battery. 

Elisabeth Moss

Despite her success in the Hulu series The Handmaiden’s Tale, Elisabeth Moss turns many people off. 

The reason? Her involvement in the Church of Scientology.

Lena Dunham

While Dunham saw success with her HBO series Girls, she’s gotten into hot water for her comments online.

In addition to being accused of several racist comments, many view her to be nothing short of a spoiled brat. 

Gwyneth Paltrow

Initially, the Pepper Potts actress turned people off for her wellness brand Goop.

More recently, moviegoers criticize Paltrow for glorifying her restricted eating diet. 

Woody Allen

While Allen has enjoyed a successful pedigree as a filmmaker for many decades, he has a laundry list of sexual allegations against him. 

Anyone with an entire Wikipedia page for their sexual abuse allegations deserves to be on a list of actors we can’t stand. 

Tom Cruise

It’s possible that Tom Cruise is clinically insane.

We’re not talking about his penchant for performing his own stunts in movies like Mission Impossible and Top Gun. Like Elisabeth Moss, he’s also a Scientologist. As a result, it has turned off many moviegoers. 

Will Smith

Even before he slapped Chris Rock at the Oscars, people started to sour on Will Smith.

One comment mentions how he comes off as someone who will do anything for fame, no matter who he hurts. 

Kevin Spacey

Kevin Spacey used to be one of the biggest names in Hollywood, thanks to performances in The Usual Suspects and House of Cards.

Everything changed with his allegations of sexual harassment. Now, it feels like nobody wants to watch a movie he’s in. 

Kevin Hart

We wrap up the list of actors we can’t stand with a comedian who seems to have a new movie release every month.

Despite having no trouble finding work, many moviegoers aren’t Kevin Hart fans due to his ability only to perform one character.
