Hey, it's Cory with Entertainment and Celebrity News today, your daily pop culture update. Roseman Pike opened up on a recent podcast about one of her biggest career flops. The Gone Girl star called the 2005 action movie Doom, one of the worst films ever made. It followed her promising start as a Bond Girl in 2002's Die Another Day. While shooting Pride and Prejudice, Pike jumped at the chance to star in a live action version of the hit video game Doom. She picture herself battling space demons alongside Dwayne the Rock Johnson, fresh from wrestling and his mummy returns debut. On set, Pike fell completely out of place amid the macho atmosphere. Wates littered a place and guns were handled like sacred objects by hardcore fans. She quickly realized she was not cut out to be an action hero. The film turned into a total catastrophe for Pike, who feared it would derail her career. It scraped by with $58,700,000 worldwide on a $60 to $70,000,000 budget, but critics trashed
it and it faded fast. These days, Pike lets back with humor, grateful to have survived the bomb and gone on to bigger successes. D&N is sponsored by our partner. Check out the episode description. No earbuds, no headbands, no awkward sleeping positions, just a pillow that plays your sound.
