There are quite a few contenders for the worst casting choice in film history, but one that often comes up in discussions is Hayden Christensen as Anakin Skywalker in the “Star Wars” prequels. Many fans felt that his portrayal didn’t capture the complexity of the character and didn’t convey the transformation from Jedi to Sith effectively. This choice, combined with the writing and direction, led to a mixed reception for his performance.
Of course, casting is subjective, and opinions can vary widely. Who do you think was the worst choice, and why?
