We know them for some of the iconic roles they've played on screen as actors but, despite the huge success and recognition they've received, they've publicly expressed regret for playing a certain character or being part of a certain film/series.


1. Penn Bagley as Joe in ‘You’ 

Joe Goldberg the main character of You was not really a good man and despite being aware of that most of us developed a crush on him and this is something Penn isn’t thrilled about. In fact, in the second season of the show Penn started to hate his character even more. In an interview on The Today Show, Bagley stated:


He's always saying, ‘If only I could show you who I really am. Up until that point, he's never been able to do that…Then he gets it, and he's a total dick about it. That was when I was like, ‘Joe, I've never liked you less! I've never liked you less.’

2. Robert Pattinson as Edward Cullen in 'Twilight'

As much as we fell in love with Edward Cullen, surprisingly, Robert Pattinson thinks differently of the movie and his character. There are dozens of interviews where he talks about the movie and makes fun of it. This is a quote from one of his interviews:

He's the most ridiculous person...the more I read the script, the more I hated this guy...Plus, he's a 108 year-old virgin so he's obviously got some issues there.

Carry was part of Kiss-Ass 2, a thriller that released in 2013. But, less than a year later following the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, he tweeted:

I did Kick-Ass a month before Sandy Hook and now in all good conscience I cannot support that level of violence.

4. Shia LaBeouf as Mutt in 'Indiana Jones'

LaBeouf played the character of Mutt in the 2008 film, Indiana Jones but, later he admitted that he wasn't satisfied with his performance in the film. In an interview with LA Times he said: 

I feel like I dropped the ball on the legacy that people loved and cherished. You get to monkey-swinging and things like that and you can blame it on the writer and you can blame it on Steven [Spielberg]. But the actor's job is to make it come alive and make it work, and I couldn't do it. So that's my fault. Simple.

Despite the success of the film, Field stated that she wasn't a fan of the role she played and the Spiderman sequel. In an interview with Howard Stern she said: 


It’s really hard to find a three-dimensional character in it, and you work it as much as you can, but you can’t put ten pounds of sh*t in a five-pound bag.

6. Zac Efron as Troy in 'High School Musical' 

We may have no complaints with Troy Bolton, but Zac Efron certainly does. This is what he had to say about his character from the film The High School Musical. 

I step back and look at myself and I still want to kick that guy’s ass sometimes. He’s done some kind of cool things with some cool people—he did that one thing that was funny—but, I mean, he’s still just that f*cking kid from High School Musical.

7. George Clooney as Batman in 'Batman & Robin'

As epic as his role might be, George Clooney has repeatedly apologized for his role in Batman publicly. He actually thought he destroyed the franchise. 


Let me just say that I’d actually thought I’d destroyed the franchise until somebody else brought it back years later and changed it. I thought at the time that this was going to be a very good career move. It wasn’t.

Now? I'd rather break this glass and slash my wrists. No, not at the moment. Not at all. That's fine. I'm over it at the moment. We're done. All I want to do is move on.

The film didn't have a script as such, it was all there in Sajid's mind. I did whatever he asked me to. I did the film thinking that it will help me expand my market, but obviously that wasn't a clever idea.
