15. Jessica Alba – Fantastic Four

Although some people might argue that Jessica Alba cannot be miscast in anything (are you sure, Honey?) they seem to overlook one particular role that just doesn’t make sense.

Much like Hepburn and Rooney’s yellow-face roles, Alba’s portrayal of Sue Storm just didn’t cut it.

First of all, her acting was a bit off. Secondly, the original comic book character Sue Storm from The Fantastic Four is a light-skinned blonde. Did Hollywood suddenly run out of those?

Basically, Alba was hired just because she was at the top of her career at the time. She’s a great actress with incredibly exotic looks and heritage – all qualities which made her not a good choice for this role.
