Blind Items Almost Revealed

April 26, 2013

This former A list mostly movie actor who achieved such results only thanks to a franchise and has since been demoted to B-, and maybe even C+ has had a tough time getting work. He has been booked for a few things in the past year but has been such a drunken mess that no one wants to work with him any longer. When you can't remember your lines, show up to work late and throw up over your co-workers, then you don't get hired.

It's not Shia. This actor solely owes any fame he has to the franchise role. He was in nothing before it.

  5. My guesses are:
    Radcliff,
    R-Patz

  6. Avatar is a franchise now...

  7. I guess it cant be Fraser because he was known before Mummy and Dan Rad works. Hayden seems like a good guess but I thought he was just so poor an actor he couldn't get work.

    1. There's tons of no talent people working: Jessica biel, hell! January Jones! Horrible actress!, shit! Arnold Schwarzenneger is still around!

  8. Dan was also in a few movies before Potter.

  9. Bloom or one of the people in the Twilight films...never watched any so no idea who anyone is in those films or if they've been in other things.

    Also possibly Daniel Radcliffe, he's admitted some drinking issues but seems mostly to keep control enough at least to keep working.

  10. Not RP - was in Harry Potter and a few other things before Twilight. It says this person was in nothing before. I'm liking the Radcliffe guess.

  11. Can't be bloom and Radcliffe, they would've lost their gigs in theatre. There is no way this (blind item) person would've been able to work in theatre.

    Fraser is well known because of his pre Mummy movies: air Heads, Blast from the Past, With Honors, School Ties, George of the Jungle.

  12. This is Pattinson.

  13. This reads like Daniel Radcliffe but like mentioned, he does theatre and there would be n intervention before they just decided he wasn't worth it. He's actually a good actor.

    What are the "franchises?"
    Harry Potter
    Pirates of the Carribean
    Transformers
    Mission Impossible
    Spiderman
    Bourne
    Avengers
    Terminator
    Twilight series
    Bond
    Jurassic Park
    Star Wars
    Lethal Weapon
    Planet of the Apes
    Narnia
    X-Men..Long list really

  14. Wasn't Worthington in the Clash of the Titans franchise though before Avatar?

    1. Yes he was @Montana.
      Also RPatz was in Harry Potter before Twilight.

  15. Taylor Lautner was in spy kids

  16. Taylor Lautner? Are you forgetting the smash masterpiece that was Shark Boy and Lava Girl???? I guarantee you my now-teenage nieces haven't! I do kinda like the astronomy guess, though, given all we've learned about him since April.

    Bloom was in LOTR and pirates, not to mention was one of the few returning characters for the Hobbit, if he was such a mess I'm sure they wouldn't have brought him in for that

  18. Gah, that was supposed to say Zac Efron guess.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Radcliffe is filming Frankenstein right now. Phew!

    ReplyDelete
  20. I would say Brendan Faser, but he was acting before The Mummy. The Mummy did make him an A list, but he still was a working actor.

    Orlando has nothing going on, except for another Hobbit movie.

    Zac Efron is another good guess.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Oh darn...forgot Orly was in Pirate AND the Lord of the Rings...so probably not him.

    I'm going with Brendan or Zac.

  22. I agree with Scissors about Anakin Skywalker. He is my go to guess whenever a blind mentions Franchise and Doesn't Work. C+ might be a little too high of a rating though.

    1. Hayden was in a Kevin Cline movie called Life as a House before his franchise.
      Great flick

  23. What about Zac Efron? Franchise would be HS Musical. I don't know....

    ReplyDelete
  24. I was going to say Chris Tucker, but he was in stuff before Rush Hour....

    ReplyDelete
  25. I like the Taylor Lautner guess. Assume Enty thinks Twilight was his first real movie.

  26. McCauley Culken

  27. Sadly this sounds like Daniel Radcliffe. The blind says he acheived is former A status from a franchise, not that it was his first role. And he has done well in theater, but again, it states he's had a tough time with work lately. He was very forthcoming a couple of years ago about his alcoholism, saying he was out of control and even drinking during filming of HP, but that he quit. There were a lot of rumors going around this year he was off the wagon.

  28. Most of these actors have been in stuff before....even daniel was in a lot of TV stuff in britain (David Copperfield) and the thing he's in with Jon Hamm is doing really well here. Have no idea. Rob pattison was in Harry Potter before too.

  30. Hmmmm, yeah, both DanRad and Pattinson have been successful in things since their big franchises. Not to the same popularity of course. They both do drink heavily though.
    I don't think Hayden C. is a drinker. Hmmm.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Not Orlando. He's a regular on "Homeland".

    ReplyDelete
  32. Taylor Lautner, the poor closeted, stage-daddy-nightmare little thing, or Pattinson - with Pattinson having a bigger rep as a hard drinker.

    Hayden Christiansen's another poor thing, but I don't know if he's been on any job that didn't involve selling his ass in quite some time.

    Zac Efron's not a bad guess either. Not subtle, given his recent travails, but he's still a contender.

    I'll go with Lautner since RPatz has picked up more work.
