'Doom' Star Calls Video Game Flick 'One of the Worst Films Ever Made'

Being in Doom nearly doomed star Rosamund Pike’s career.

The actress, who was hot off her role as a Bond Girl in 2002’s Die Another Day, was tapped to be the female lead of director Andrzej Bartkowiak’s 2005 live-action adaptation of the popular shoot-'em-up video game franchise.

Though she felt her action star trajectory got off to a promising start with the 007 film, Doom’s failure quickly put that to an end, a career stumble which Pike reflected on during an appearance this week on How to Fail with Elizabeth Day.
