There is no other answer than this.
The actor who had only bad films.
They did it on purpose !
Or an actor that only did television shows.
Brandon Lee
Correct, but also sad
Nicholas Cage. And I’m ready to die on that hill.
Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance?
See, I can think of a few movies of his that I have problems with. Yet I wouldn’t call them bad, only missing a few cylinders to bring them to perfect. He has been in a few that are top, damn Con Air is about the perfect movie ever for what it was aiming to be.
Wickerman. Go.
We may have slightly different definitions of good, but fair enough.
Prisoners of the ghostland would like a word
I just can’t take Vampire’s Kiss.
This is the only correct answer.
Daniel Day Lewis
His filmography is very limited because he was extremely picky about what he appeared in. But even still, I think all of his movies were good, even if done of them were uncomfortable to watch.
Nine (2009) has entered the chat
Steven Seagal.
Technically Correct since they are all bad…
James Stewart, James Cagney
What about movies where the actor’s performance was the only good thing in an otherwise bad film? I don’t think those should count against the actor. They did their job well; it’s not their fault the rest of the production sucked.
Every Nick Cage movie ever

How do you quantify “bad?”

Adam Sandler
The best kind of correct!
Tom Cruise. I seriously think I like all his films.
Tom Cruise. It’s awkward but undeniable.
The Mummy (2017)
M-I:2 was a miss on so many levels.
John Woo tried his best. That script couldn’t be saved.
I say this as a person whose guilty pleasure is a rewatch of any M:I movie. But, I can’t give any time to this turd sandwich.
Cocktail?
This one I have at least heard of! A critical flop but box-office success, apparently. So not obviously “bad”.
