All Dogs Go to Heaven since Judith Barsi and her mother were murdered by her abusive alcoholic father.

You forgot Titanic, Gloria Stuart, Bernard Fox, Bill Paxton, David Warner, and Bernard Hill died each a few years apart

[trinaq]

It's sad that all three leads of "Rebel" died tragically young, and we never got to see how far James Dean could have gone in his budding career.

[clairehoskin]

Crazy to think that we didn’t know at the time that these celebs would become so problematic.

New idea 💡 Do top 10 movies and shows that ruined our childhood

I think cast members being 'problematic' is considerably less 'doomed' than a batch of them dying fairly soon, or getting cancer from filming near an A-Bomb test.

Other doomed movies:
+The Dark Knight Trilogy
+Atuk (script)
+Superman franchise
+Apocalypse Now

Ferris Bueller's Day Off should be an honorable mention

Missed the “asbestos” snow in wizard of oz

What about The Twilight Zone movie? I heard there were young casts were met with a… let’s just call it a “gruesome” fate.

On the Get Him To The Greek entry, alongside Brand, Diddy, and Miller, it’s arguable Jonah Hill could be amongst them too. There was a thing a while ago where one of his ex girlfriends accused him of being emotionally manipulative and abusive, which he said was some attempt to establish boundaries in their relationship. And then Alexa Nikolas said something happened between Hill and her at Justin Long’s house. I’m not sure what eventually became of these stories, but that’s all insanely wild if it’s true.

I thought “doomed” cast referred to problematic cast members, not people who got sick and died

[NickCC]

The TV show equivalent is "Bewitched". A number of regulars died before the age of 75.

Happy wednesday afternoon, Kirsten, take care and God bless you. Greetings from Colombia to you as well

This reminds me: there’s something that always annoyed me about that I don't think anyone brought up and it's annoyed me every single time: there's always at least one cast member or crew member who will never come back. This isn't always a bad thing...IF the character isn't important to the story and the old writers and producers who are out of ideas pass the torch to new talented writers and producers. But in the worst case scenario, they either died or retired or fucked up their career beyond repair or just to be petty against a cast member or crew member. I don't even watch Sex & The City and Kim Catrall is the first person who comes to mind on that last part.

Especially when the writers can't come up with a justifiable reason why this character is uncharacteristically not there. Where was Eddie during Raven's birthday? Where was Cory during his and Raven's dad's birthday? What the fuck did you do to Juliet!?! How are you gonna explain Chloe in this planned animated Smallville sequel!?! She's literally the only main character who showed up on every single season!

But then the writers do come up with an explanation but it's BS. I hate that they killed off Carlos in the new Descendants movie! They never outright say they killed him off, let alone why he’s gone but I hate it either way. Because some of the other actors from the movie trilogy were adamant about never making another installment without Cameron Boyce after his tragic passing and almost no one came back for that movie! Which makes me wonder how they were strong armed into making that mid animated wedding special. Which, by the way, they could've taken full advantage of the animation by letting Carlos be in the story with archived dialogue. Maybe his family and loved ones would've been uncomfortable or something. We'll likely never know.

Give the iCarly revival this, they never forgot about Sam and gave us a good enough explanation for her absence and even made her an important part of the story even with her continued absence. I really hope they get a movie to close out this mom plot.😢

Never heard of the russian film before

[Ryan-xllr]

Despicable me 1 & 2 won't be be shown on TV again because of Russell brand, illumination could easily redub Dr nefario then doomed no more.

[CarolHardesty]

Honestly, "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" ruined the "Harry Potter" franchise for me. And not because of the cast or crew. It was just an all-around terrible movie that lacked the magic of its predecessors.

Talked about depp but not heard I guess only one agenda matters
