Imagine having to transform into someone else and play that role for hours or months on end. It takes a lot of effort and skill to do something like that. Professional actors often immerse themselves in a role to such an extent that it almost seems like they really are that character.

Even though performers try their best to draw you into the story, there are some actors that people just love to hate for many reasons. That’s why we compiled this list of folks' least favorite entertainers that they simply can’t stand to watch.

Actor in aviator sunglasses riding a motorcycle on a runway at sunset. You're going to be mad. Tom Cruise. He just makes my skin crawl, I find him insufferable.

Yeh, I just can't watch him. It's a damn shame because if creative talents do participate in making and acting in his movie and it kinda makes me feel less of them a little too..at least in the short term.

On a personal level, he's a terrible fool who chose Scientology over his little girl. When you're in a so called church and they forbidden you having any contact with frieds and or family. All because you'll find out the truth and leave, that's a cult. So I refuse to see anything he is in.

Go on a deep dive of how the Scientology powers-that-be coddle him and wrap him in $$$$$$ presents like some royal infant and you won't even be able to look at a photo of him, it's abhorrent and so so sooooo bizarre.

He seems to have settled into playing two characters: clutzy-nebbishy Tom Cruise and galactic-force-of-nature-funky-running-style Tom Cruise. Sometimes (Edge of Tomorrow) he gets to play both.

Agreed. To me he's always been "Tom with a different character name" in everything. Except Tropic Thunder - it was the first film I've ever seen him in where he wasn't just "Tom Cruise in a different jacket".

    Actors are just playing a role, and people know this, but they can still be influenced by factors like the character’s personality, the performer’s skills, and their body language. Studies found that different images of the same actor with happy, sad, confused, or closed-off expressions can make people feel differently towards them. 

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Only an expert who knows the acting process can help us understand why audiences react differently to various performers. That’s why Bored Panda reached out to Matthew Harrison, a world-renowned acting coach and founder of The Actor's Foundry. He has taught thousands of actors and helped build many successful careers in Hollywood and around the world for over twenty years. 

    We asked him why there are certain actors that people seem to dislike so much. He told us that the “reason an audience member will react badly to an actor and dislike them falls under three categories: 

    1. The performer is simply just not good.
    2. Something about the essence, chemistry, personality, and vibe of the actor that an audience member finds distasteful.
    3. Or that the characters the particular entertainer tends to play are unattractive.

    Anyone else hear the rumor that for years she's been controlling, gaslighting and manipulating Will Smith, and that's why with one withering glance to Will Smith while Chris Rock was making his GI Jane/bald joke changed Will's laugh to a serious look then he went and smacked Chris? No idea if it's true, we don't know what goes on behind closed doors, but hearing the rumor then re-watching that smack video changed my perspective. Doesn't excuse Will's actions, but maybe we're getting a peek behind the curtain to explain his volatile reaction.

    An extremely interesting thing that Matthew explained is that “acting is the art form of life.” Audiences don’t just passively view plays, movies, or shows; they tend to get immersed in the story. That’s exactly why folks pass moral judgments about characters, identify with them, or even try to analyze their feelings.

    Matthew explained that current audiences have “become extremely educated in human behavior, whereas audiences of the 1970s or 1980s didn’t have access to YouTube, social media, and the plethora of memes exposing real human behavior. So when an actor pushes, fakes, or plays cliché ideas, people have become extremely educated at catching them in a lie.” 

    ADVERTISEMENT

    “So acting today has become hyper-realistic. The great actors of our time are spontaneously living in the circumstances of the story, the movie, the TV show, and the play. Within the context of the text, the strict understanding of their character’s actions and emotions, the actor has to surrender to the story and let accidents fly.”

    “Which is why [great actors] are so good. They are never caught in a lie, are never caught presenting ideas, they are never showing you their homework, they are never faking anything. In other words, you never catch them ‘acting,’” Matthew shared.

    The problem with her acting is that to be a really good actor she'd have to step out of her "brand" - and she seems unable to do that. You always see Jennifer Lopez, no matter what movie or show she is in.

    I find that with a lot of US "actors" though. They have no range. They can't change into another character. They can't do accents. Give me a British actor any day. Now THEY can go from role to role and you might not even realize who you're looking at! Many are great at doing accents (especially American accents - take Hugh Laurie.) Not saying that there aren't some good US actors - just not as many.

    A big reason why we might engage so heavily with what the actors are doing on screen is also because of mirror neurons. Neuroscientists explain that these neurons get activated when we observe an individual doing something or expressing an emotion. It almost makes us feel what they are experiencing.

    Matthew also added to this perspective, explaining that “our animalistic brains respond to the other animals in front of us. We may have slightly forgotten this in our modern societies, but just like dogs react to what’s in front of them on a visceral level, so do we.”

    “If an actor is faking it, pushing emotion, thinking about their performance, and not actually being the character, then they are not in their animal mode. So the audience, who are animals, get very uncomfortable with the strange thing in front of them that looks and talks like an animal but isn’t actually being one.”

    ADVERTISEMENT

    “So for all these reasons, you just can’t trick an audience. The real test of this is putting an actor on stage. You absolutely cannot fake it because the audience is right there in front of you. If your heart is supposed to be broken, it better be broken. If you were dying, you would better be dying. If you were falling in love, you had better be falling in love,” he shared.

    His public persona (which in his case definitely seems to have some reality behind it) is really gross. As an actor I can only really associate him with the role of Jordan Catalano in My So-Called Life, a favourite of mine as a teen, so I have a hint of fondness left there. On the other hand, Angela (Claire Daines) deserved so much better than Jordan - and I secretly kinda hoped she and Rayanne would end up together.

    I think she had/has potential, but I also think she was pigeonholed into the "fat campy/funny girl " for so long that idk if she's really the character or if she became the character. I'd like to see her feel confident enough to try something else. Maybe try a little stage acting to see if she can make the transition from comedian >>comedic actor>> actor.

    She seems harmless enough, definitely always typecast into the same role. The one thing I struggle with is how compos mentis she is. There's probably nothing wrong with her, but everytime I look in her eyes....it's like the lights are on but no one's driving. Can't tell if there's anyone in there. Her vocal responses are like a Siri script.

But she's a celebrity so she can do what she wants. Never mind all the closeted lesbians who are afraid for their lives who live there. Grrr.

    All the posts you see here are about bad actors and why people tend to dislike them. On the other hand, there are so many incredible performers that most folks seem drawn to. We asked Matthew Harrison about the qualities of some of these great entertainers.

    He told us that “audiences might like an actor because they are very skilled at living truthfully in a scene, maybe they simply have an interesting personality or chemistry, or they happen to be very attractive.” 

    He also explained how some “actors can be highly skilled, and good at breaking down a script, analyzing their characters, finding the emotions of the character, connecting to the other actors on stage or screen, and delivering a very nuanced performance.”

    She talked about it. Said she felt pressured and was experiencing a lot of doubt and dysphoria and mental health issues after being massively sexualized at such a young age. She's worked hard to get over it, but I totally sympathize as she hit her peak stardom in Harvey Weinstein's Hollywood. And let's not forget that she was working with Michael Bay and Shia Lebouf, both well know a******s.

    I can't stand Megan Fox, I have to admit. In terms of acting I can only judge some of her really early roles, because I haven't bothered to watch anything more recent. She used to be described as a "younger Angelina Jolie" and whatever one thinks of Jolie, I just never saw that. There's no real talent, and her persona and publicity antics just make my skin crawl. That may be separate from her true self, of course - the one thing I will say is that I've been impressed by certain things she's said when talking about her kids and parenting. But the dichotomy there throws me; I find her public side just awful.

    Kevin Sorbo was never a great, dramatic actor, but he was fine at the kind of campy, hammy roles he became known for. I have a problem with him the same way I do with any celebrity who publicly endorses Trump or promotes racist and fundamentalist views, but he is probably the only one for whom aneurysm and strokes may be partly to blame for that obviously impaired thinking. I do adore his former colleague Lucy Lawless all the more for publicly challening his regressive politics.

    There's a reason I had a crush on Xena and not Hercules in the 90's. Kevin's acting was as flat as a sheet of paper. It's rumored from film executives back in the day that he wouldn't stop pushing for his Christian style projects being financed, despite studios stating there's no money in it, he pushed so far to become a pain in everyone's butt, so he stopped getting any offers and had to rely on the Christian film community supplying him with roles in hammy religious movies. He could've mosied his way into being another high-paid muscle man like Schwarzenegger, Stallone, Van Damme, he had the fanbase during Hercules, but he pushed everything in the wrong direction.

    As you’ve probably understood from all these comments, being an incredible performer requires so much more than just reading lines from a script. That’s why, even though there might be tons of aspiring actors, only around 2% are able to make a living doing it. It’s estimated that nearly two-thirds of performers give up after their first year of acting.

    That’s why Matthew explained that “aspiring actors need to know that there’s no such thing as talent. Talent is a lie and psychologically disproven. Actors need to find the skills, sharpen their tools, and [keep practicing].”

    ADVERTISEMENT

    “What makes acting effective is when an actor has done ridiculous, exhaustive, and rigorous homework. They have to have an unbelievable ability to understand human psychology to better be able to break down scripts, know story analysis, and understand the character.”

    “The actor needs to be emotionally connected to themselves and be a tireless researcher in their own emotional triggers, memories, and imagination. Ridiculous rigorous preparation followed by complete abandon, and that is very hard and is the reason why some actors just can’t pull it off,” he shared.

    Who knew that acting required so much more than just showing up and speaking memorized lines? It’s understandable that different people may be fond of or dislike certain performers. Now that we’ve learned the extent of what goes on behind the scenes, it might help us be a bit kinder towards these actors. They’re doing it for our entertainment, after all.

    We’d love to hear from you about actors you love and possibly dislike.

    If it wasn't for Deuce Bigalow Male Gigolo, and the roles Adam Sandler provides, we'd never have heard of Schneider. Funny on screen, but finding out how awful he is off-screen has tainted trying to enjoy his performances.

    He followed the path of all religious conservative actors like Kirk Cameron or Kevin Sorbo, that is, straight to the bottom of the -D list. His most recent work is a kids' show ripping off Bluey, but they're a family of conservative Christians with a working dad and tradwife mother. It's a very bland show that's mostly code for bringing back the 1950s American lifestyle and at the same time there's a weird undercurrent about getting minorities to assimilate and queer people to be silent

    I lost respect for him when he and Oprah went on T.V. asking for donations to help the victims in Hawaii after the fire. Both of them could have rebuild that area between the 2 of them. Many of us are doing our best and here they are asking for money. Shame.

    I totally agree that Oprah could have rebuilt the damage using her pocket change - but if we go by your logic no celebrity ever should speak up for donations/charity work. Look into all the charity work Johnson does for his home. Also: just throwing money at problems doesn't help in the long run, it's awareness that's necessary.

    It's such a weird experience when you find out that he can actually act. Based on all those typical Adam Sandler comedies, it seems like he can only play the fun goofball (where he's super funny or super cringy, depending on your taste) and that he cannot act out emotions at all (his crying and anger in those movies are over the top ridiculous, he just does them child level fake instead of even trying). But once in a while he does some small serious movie, and you can't believe it's actually him, he looks so different and he turns out to actually be a very decent actor. I never would have expected that.

    A woman with blonde hair and a red scarf smiles warmly against a blurred outdoor background, discussing actors. When I was younger I really hated Shelley Duvall. Her whiny, yelling and tear ridden performance in The Shining, and her being Olive Oyl. I thought she was the worst.

    As an adult I was able to see that she was just a great actress that performed both of those roles to absolute perfection. Like Joffrey in Game of Thrones their performance was entirely convincing and gave you a visceral reaction to the character.

    Add into all that she also made fairytale theatre. If you haven't seen it please sail the seven seas and show it to your children or your own inner child. The Frog Prince features Robin Williams as the Frog. They always had celebrity featured performers in their fairytales.

    R.I.P. Shelley Duvall.

    Actor in a plaid shirt looking at another person in a dimly lit room, with a bearded man in the background. Markie Mark Wahlberg. I know some people like him in certain roles, but he doesn't really add anything. Others can elevate him, but he's a net negative.

    In two instances in '86 he and some friends chased Black kids away by throwing rocks at them and calling them ni**&3rs. The next year he attacked a man of Vietnamese descent with a 5 foot "stick" so Marky Mark can f**k off. He says he's changed, and I hope that's true, but he doesn't get my eyeballs to make any money.

    I knew about all the bits you listed, but not the cheating, who did he cheat with? Poor Anna went down the drain after he did this to her, the photo of her at her worst weight loss was heartbreaking while Chris was posting about his new wife giving him such a healthy baby. Then he seemed to become super religious and made more horrible comments. Ruined re-watching Parks & Recreation, he used to be my favorite part of the show and now he just makes my skin crawl.
