We're all flawed, so we've committed mistakes that we regret. Whether it's professional or personal, our apologies aren't shown to the entire world on enormous screens. Regrettably, this is not the case for these actors.
A few of these celebrities and producers have voiced regret for some of their best-known roles. These stars, from Carrie Fisher from Star Wars to Kate Winslet from Titanic, still wish they could go back in time and change everything.
Even when an actor is in a critically praised film, there's no guarantee they thinks highly of it. In fact, due to the exceptional quality elsewhere, it appears that some performers are much more judgmental of their own appearances in otherwise excellent movies. For example, Patrick Stewart would never have agreed to play Captain Picard if you told him he'd be playing Star Trek for seven years.
