I get that Costner loves his script and that it’s deemed good. However nobody will pay to see a film starring Sam Worthington. Costner messed up casting him. Another actor might have brought asses in seats.
sharelaughed pretty hard when i saw his name in the credits. that dude is box office cancer.
shareHe does a fine job in the film, and furthermore, his name is just one of many. The film has a stacked cast and there's no real star, as there is no real central character.
shareKevin Costner is not star and central character of this movie?
shareKevin Costner is only in about a quarter of the movie. His character may get more screen time as the story moves forward, but in this first part there are multiple storylines that play out, with each focused on a different lead character: Costner, Worthington and Luke Wilson. I may even be forgetting someone else.
shareWow, okay, thanks for the heads up on his screen time in chapter 1.
shareAfter Avatar Worthington made actually quite compelling movies. He is not the action star Cameron and Spielberg tried to make out of him, but in dramas he is actually not bad.
