Taylor Kitsch: John Carter
In 2012, Taylor Kitsch faced a challenging year as both Battleship and John Carter flopped at the box office, drawing significant scrutiny. These high-profile commercial failures marked a pivotal moment in Kitsch’s career, casting doubt on his ability to carry big-budget films.

Industry analyst Jeff Bock suggested that these setbacks could push Kitsch out of leading roles and diminish his status as an A-list contender. Despite his previous success, the dual disappointments of Battleship and John Carter threatened to derail his momentum in Hollywood, making it difficult for him to regain his footing in major film projects.
