reddit user @Similar_Bad5642 asked "Movie where the leads have zero chemistry?" and here are some of the answers, you can find the whole thing at the source.
- Lauren London & Jonah Hill in You People. They failed chemistry so bad they can't graduate.
- Okay maybe a little niche but Katherine Heigl and Alexis Bledel in Jenny’s Wedding. A lesbian movie from 2015 that feels like it should’ve been released in 1998. I’ve seen rocks next to each other on the pavement with more chemistry. Also I’m sorry but Katherine Heigl is like the least believable lesbian I’ve ever seen on film😭
- I love Contact but Jodie Foster and Matt McConaughey have no chemistry. She has so much more chemistry with William Fichtner that it makes me think the romantic storyline is so unneeded
- Ana de Armas & Chris Evans in Ghosted. I was actually kind of excited about this one because I liked both of them in Knives Out and they have pretty good chemistry in interviews, but boy did that not translate to this film. Although, I mostly just blame the movie on being pretty bad in general. I’m not sure anyone could’ve saved it.
- This is I think unpopular opinion but I never understood why people love Jerry Maguire because I found Renee Zellweger and Tom Cruise completely lacked chemistry!
- Not a movie but Mike Delfino (James Denton) had 0 chemistry with anyone in Desperate Housewives. He was as about as exciting as a cardboard box.
