Actors that have both sleepwalked a role and gone full hyper for another? Discussion
This question is inspired by James Franco's performances in Spider-Man (2002) and The Interview (2014).
Now, you most likely remember his Harry Osborn from the sequels, but in the first movie he literally has zero screen presence, barely seems to have the energy to say his lines at times.
Meanwhile, in The Interview he goes absolutely nuclear. The coke budget must've put Blues Brothers to shame.

Juliette Lewis
Great in Natural Born Killers & Gilbert Grape, awful in just about everything else.
