There are several reasons to not watch a movie/ TV show. The genre, the plot, the main cast, or the music. However, the main cast is first worth mentioning. The audiences just don't like an actor or find him/ her unmatched by the characters they play. So they don't welcome his/ her appearance in that movie.
Recently, Reddit user
u/Thorne628 has asked people in his online
community to name some actors and actresses whose movies they will not watch. The OP's questions ended up with thousands of votes and comments. People don't hold it back. A lot of expected and unexpected names are listed, being attached with quite a persuasive explanation. It's fun and exciting to read on!
Bollywood actor Salman Khan, German actor Matthias Schweighöfer, Gwyneth Paltrow, Elizabeth Moss, and Jared Leto are all named. You might be surprised because many people have the same thinking as you. It's ok to like or don't like an actor. The point is to avoid insulting them.
If you are curious about whether your favorite actors and actresses are on this list, keep scrolling down.
#1 Matthias Schweighöfer

Everything with German actor Matthias Schweighöfer in it is an absolute no-go for me
He’s very popular and it feels like he’s the lead in every shallow bullshit comedy Germany has made in the last decade. Can’t stand the guy. - Heiminator
#2 Salman Khan (Bollywood)

Salman Khan (Bollywood) Overall a bad overrated actor. Killed a few homeless people on the streets as he ran over them in an accident.
Framed his driver for that and the driver died unsupported by anyone.
He’s just a fucking dick. - MostWholesomePerson
#3 Bella Thorne

I never saw anything with Bella Thorne in it until recently. I didn’t get the hate, I don’t like her, but I didn’t get it.
Then I watched Paradise City. I unironically loved it despite it not being very good, but god fucking damn it do I hate her character and for some reason her as a result. It’s not logical, it doesn’t make sense, but nope.
Then I found out about some music she put out with Steve Aoki and saw a promo video for it and couldn’t stand the way she acted, for again no logical reason. - halfsquat851
#4 Gwyneth Paltrow

Her arrogance, if that’s what you call it, makes her completely unappealing. -

Not me, but my wife can't watch anything with Steve Buscemi in it. She had a horrible nightmare when she was 5 or 6 years old that he was chasing her around her house trying to kill her. -

Most Scientologist actors, especially Elizabeth Moss. How are you gonna star in a
TV Show about a cult taking over a country when you’re in a cult that wants to take over the country? -

I loved the early seasons of Glee but she made it almost painful to watch, sometimes I would fast forward her scenes. Then she was in tv commercials and YouTube ads, it was so annoying seeing her face everywhere. Then in recent years all these controversies about her came out, they way she treated others, the bullying, her aggressive behaviour, threatening other actors. I won’t watch a movie/tv show if she is in it. -

I have problem watching future Joss Whedon stuff. I've loved all of his shows up until all his bullshit came out recently. He has a new show The Nevers and I can't bring myself to watch it. I feel like I'll just be wondering which one of these actors did he randomly decide to torture. -

Kevin Spacey is so difficult now particularly because of how many of his great roles are creepy, twisted, manipulative. I can’t watch them now without thinking, how much of this guys real personality am I seeing? It’s just too close to what he actually did. -

He’s being sued by FKA twigs for abuse, and admitted to it when the allegations came out. He’s disgusting. -

All his characters are 10 types of dumb in my personal opinion with the exception of Mega Mind. I started hating his characters after I watched elf, it just left a bad image of him in my mind. -
