Regrets are a normal part of life, but can you imagine being an A-list Hollywood actor, being part of a huge production and then regretting being a part of it? This week we are taking a look at certain actors who ended up hating a role they had taken on.

Jessica Alba has had a pretty decent movie career. I wouldn’t call it stellar, she has not been nominated for any Oscars, but she has done some good work. When it comes to her participation in the movie “Fantastic Four” however, Alba does not consider it to be her finest work. These days superhero movies are taken far more seriously than they were back in 2005 when Alba starred as Invisible Woman in “Fantastic Four.” She claims that the experience actually made her want to quit acting for good.

This is a strange one, but can you believe that Robert Pattinson regrets starring in the “Twilight” movies? Pattinson expressed that it was not a good experience to play the vampire Edward Cullen as he felt he was representing something he did not particularly like. I feel that the legions of fans of the “Twilight” films could never imagine anyone other than Pattinson as Edward.
