Jack Black shares what controversial movie makes him feel like a 'sell-out' and he regrets making

I think we can all agree that not every Hollywood movie does well at the box office, leaving those who starred in the film feeling a little red-faced.

Recently Dakota Johnson had publicly criticised her recent movie Madame Web which flopped at the box office - leading her to say that she'll never do a movie like it again.

It's said to have had a budget of $80 - $100 million and went on to only make just over $100 million in cinemas.

It also went down like a lead balloon with critics and fans alike, with Madame Web boasting just 11 percent on Rotten Tomatoes' Tomatometer.

Ouch.

Following the movie's poor reception, Johnson said she wasn't surprised.

"Unfortunately, I’m not surprised that this has gone down the way it has," she told Bustle.

And Johnson isn't alone in speaking negatively about a movie she's starred in as Jack Black also has expressed his regrets about starring in 2001 movie Shallow Hal.

The 00s rom-com is about a shallow man, Hal (Black), who falls in love with a 300-pound woman because of her inner beauty.

He starred in the film alongside Gwyneth Paltrow who played his on-screen love interest.

While Black initially hoped the movie would be funny, he later admitted that didn't end up being what he'd expected.

"I had an opportunity to work with some dudes I thought were really funny, but it didn’t turn out as I’d hoped," the actor said in 2006, as per Metro.

"I wasn’t proud of it, and I got paid a lot of money, so, in retrospect, it feels like a sell-out."

Black reportedly was paid $2 million for the role, writes Parade.com.

His co-star Paltrow also didn't speak highly of the film and labelled it as 's**te'.

Speaking about having to sport a fat-suit for the role, the actress previously told The Guardian in 2006: "The first day I tried the fat suit on, I was in the Tribeca Grand and I walked through the lobby. It was so sad. It was so disturbing.

"No one would make eye contact with me because I was obese. I felt humiliated."

She continued: "For some reason, the clothes they make for women that are overweight are horrible. I felt humiliated because people were really dismissive."

Both actors have since gone on to star in much more successful films since Shallow Hal's release.

Black has featured in the likes of Jumanji, Kung Fu Panda and The Super Mario Bros. Movie, while Paltrow found success with movies like Iron Man, and Contagion.
