Actors Who Were Supposed To Be The Next Big Thing But Fizzled Out

Mike Vogel

Mike Vogel was a Levi's model before he ever worked in Hollywood. During a campaign, he caught the eye of talent scouts and was cast in the TV series Grounded for Life. He played smaller roles in a couple lowkey horror movies, but he never landed any box office hits.

Nick Stahl

Nick Stahl has landed roles alongside some Hollywood giants like Mel Gibson and Arnold Schwarzenneger, but his career in acting didn't last long. He was arrested for possession of methamphetamine in 2013, and in a 2017 interview he stated he was focusing on putting his life back together.
