Colin Farrell: Alexander

In 2003, Colin Farrell was riding high with hits like Daredevil and S.W.A.T., cementing his status as a rising star. However, his role in Alexander in 2004 marked a turning point. The film, marred by a flawed interpretation and weak script, received mixed reviews that overshadowed Farrell’s performance.

Though Alexander wasn’t a box office disaster, it significantly dented his career trajectory. The film’s underwhelming reception halted Farrell’s momentum, leading to a period of career uncertainty. Despite his earlier successes, Alexander became a cautionary tale of how a high-profile project can impact even the most promising careers.
