Celebrities Who Hated The Characters They Played

From the outside, successful actors seem to live a blessed life. We have to get up at the crack of dawn every day and head off to work, doing the same thing all week long. They get paid to dress up and pretend to be other people for a while.

That doesn't mean they always enjoy their job any more than we do, though. If you've ever seen a film and hated it, and wondered how a self-respecting actor could even get involved in such an awful production, you can rest assured that they were also aware it was terrible.

Whether it's because people only associate them with that one character, or because the pay and conditions on set were awful, many actors have despised the roles they've played in the past, and the films in which they played them. Some of your all-time favorites might be on this list!
