Castaway
Easier to bat 1.000 when you only need to fill 3 roles I guess.

Man you beat me to Inglorious Basterds. Watching it for first time on UHD now. Incredible cast that I recognize so much more than as they have developed their careers.
Lea Seydoux is one of the French girls in the intro
Daniel Bruhl is the German soldier pining for Shosana
Paul Rust is one of the Basterds
The best acting I’ve seen out of Michael Fassbender and Christoph Waltz(I think highly of them both and expected them to both become much bigger than they have been).
There isn’t a bad actor in the entire film. Hilarious to me that some people criticize Brad Pitt’s Italian accent. The terrible accent was intentional and absolutely on point! I’m sure I’m missing some others.

Clearly, between original casting and dismissal, they thought Stuart Townsend had something to bring to the role. But I just cannot picture it.
