inexplicable leading men

[Dominic]

Every so often, Hollywood tries to foist upon an unexpecting public a Leading Man who has no business being there. Maybe a modicum of talent, yet without personality, star-power - PIZAZZ!!

Here's my choice as most inexplicable Leading Man ever:


Craig Wasson




Wasson starred in some movies in early 80s Hollywood fare like Four Friends, Ghost Story and Body Double. I have a sneaking suspicion that one of the reasons you've probably never heard of these movies (except maybe for the last one) is because Wasson's charisma level - that being ZERO - sunk these pictures before they could find an audience.

He's not bad. He's kinda charming in that Steve Zahn kind of way, you know? But you don't build a $20 million movie around him.

In recent years, Wasson maintains a career with a steady diet of guest roles on TV shows like Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.
