19 Movies With Such A Perfect Cast That Changing Any Of The Actors Would Ruin The Whole Movie
Casting is one of the most critical factors of filmmaking since it impacts how audiences and critics view a film. So it is obvious that casts can make or break a movie. It's all well and good to have a brilliant storyline, but if the actors are unable to portray the required emotions, the film will most likely die in the water.
Many people have assumed that actors with certain star levels will be the ones to attract and draw more audiences to the film. While this isn't the only factor that contributes to the success of a movie, it certainly helps. Knowing this, Hollywood filmmakers have utilized the actors’ star power by bringing together an impressive A-list cast in one film. A perfect example of this is "Little Women", which featured such prominent cast as Emma Watson, Florence Pugh, Eliza Scanlen, and so on. And this film immediately attracted a large number of viewers after its premiere.
The following is a list of 19 Movies with the most impressive casts ever assembled. Keep reading for more details.
"Even the CGI characters had the right voice actors! After watching it dozens of times, I still couldn't think of anyone better to play the main cast."—courtv
"You literally couldn't change one person without changing the whole movie. Every single character was so perfectly picked for their role."—arshiab
"Every character is so well played, and the cast allows you to get lost in the characters. There’s a reason the movie is a classic. Plus, the way some of those iconic lines are delivered? Perfection."—cleverchipmunk50
"I’ve always thought this was really well cast. Everyone played their roles perfectly, especially when they had to play their 'tethered' characters. They completely transformed into the opposite versions of the other family and completely sold me on the idea of there being others among us. I could go on for DAYS about Lupita Nyong'o's performance, but it was really the children who kept me on my toes while I was watching."—mmoxie30
"This movie was perfect in every way. The casting was impeccable; no one could have played them better!"—Molly Meisner
"For sure, no question!"—injiismaeil1
"In the first movie, all of the kids were AMAZING actors, and in the second movie, they all look SO MUCH like their child counterparts! Plus, Bill Skarsgård as Pennywise is ICONIC!"—onedirection822
"Everyone in that cast stood out. Alan Arkin won an Oscar — but even Paul Dano and Steve Carell held their own as supporting actors. Toni Collette played a great overworked mother, and Abigail Breslin stole the show. Greg Kinnear was ALSO amazing as the dad. Just great choices throughout."—google_112706733778149358688
"The last time I watched that movie, I literally said that they should make an Oscar for Best Ensemble, because EVERY PERSON IN THAT MOVIE WAS FUCKING INCREDIBLE."—Midnight In Avalon
"They are all so talented that it really makes the story come together so perfectly. I think that if any one role in that movie had been miscast, it wouldn’t have worked."—brennap48d90008e
"The entire cast fit their character roles to a T. You couldn’t convince me that the Toros and Clovers weren’t actually beefing IRL."—morganalexissk
"This was spectacularly cast. Finding the right actors not only to emulate the cast of the original TV show but also to add their own interpretation so it wasn't a hollow imitation was definitely a challenge — and they knocked it out of the park."—ams2308
"Not enough people have seen this movie. I can’t think of a more perfectly cast film, ever. Every single actor brings something unique and makes their character so interesting and real, and it gave them all an opportunity to shine in roles you don’t usually see them in."—Beauregard Furu
"The chemistry between Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen is mesmerizing, but the family dynamic is what really brings this movie together. You remember each character individually for their energy and how they interact with one another, like a true family does. The side characters also made sure you fully grasped their purpose. Freakin' Judi Dench should have won an award for this movie just for how she delivered on being Lady Catherine de Bourgh. The whole cast was fantastic and brought Jane Austen’s world to life."—Desiree Roberge
"No film has ever been this well cast. I swear each actor was born strictly to play their role in this film. Matthew Lillard in particular was the most spot-on casting choice to date, period."—emrayy
"The expectations were SKY HIGH because the movies were based on a beloved book series, and people had been imagining these characters for decades. The cast really did an astounding job bringing these characters to life!"—TKGM
