Topher Grace as Venom (Spiderman 3)

Spider-Man 3 had the most enormous problem with Eddie Brock, also called Venom in the film, one of the most popular villains in the world of comic books. People were eager to see who would portray the villain, but the deadly opponent of Spider-Man was Eric Forman of That 70’s Show, a strange twist. Besides, the person was written so intensely that nobody could spare the film its awful destiny.

Emma Stone as Allison Ng (Aloha)

Emma Stone is a bunch of stuff, but neither one-quarter is Hawaiian, and one-quarter is Chinese. Cameron Crowe decided to shine through those subtleties. He cast Stone on rom-com Aloha as Allison Ng, an Air Force pilot. The media condemns the film: “…in a movie that already starred Bradley Cooper, Rachel McAdams, Bill Murray, and Alec Baldwin, would it have been so hard to shine the spotlight on an actor with Asian or Pacific Island ancestry?” Crowe and Stone eventually apologized, and after blowing the box office, the film was ruined by critics.
