Actors Who Were Supposed To Be The Next Big Thing But Fizzled Out

Kate Bosworth

Kate Bosworth had a series of small roles in films like The Horse Whisperer and Remember the Titans, but her breakout role was in Blue Crush. The surfer movie gained $40 million in box office sales and led her to take several other roles. However, she's never managed to claim a lead role of her own since.

Kellan Lutz is best known for playing Emmett Cullen in The Twilight Saga. After leaving the series, he played Tarzan, Poseidon, and Hercules. That's a pretty packed roster. Unfortunately, all of his films are pretty B-level.
