Movies with a 'strange' cast Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

Have you ever seen a movie with a cast that makes you wonder?

I just fell upon the movie Around the World in Eighty Days (2004), and checked the cast list:

Jackie Chan
Arnold Schwarzenegger
John Cleese
Owen Wilson
Rob Schneider
Sammo Hung Kam-Bo

... and there's probably a few I don't know by name, but have seen before...



I've never actually heard the story Around the World in 80 days, but with a cast like this, it sounds like a comedy movie with some action (???)

This sounds guaranteed to be a goofy movie. Jackie Chan alone can make it too goofy.

With Steve Coogan as Phileas Fogg it'll either be a work of comic genius, or a waste of a good book

Suffering from ads?

I doubt Schwarzeneger will be in it, unless they already finished filming. He said that he won't do any movies now that he is governor.

Hang on a minute, actors are by definition strange - "I'm so wonderful I should get paid for acting".

A movie that doesn't have a strange cast is, by definition, a documentary.

I wonder; if they're strange can they also be charming?

Maybe he's role is only a minor one, like where he's only on the scene for about 2 minutes or so...

Steve Coogan is hilarious. The cast seems good. I suspect it will be a funny movie.

Steve Coogan, John Cleese, Arnold Schwarzenegger...it sounds worth watching for the interaction between the actors...a very odd combination...
