The James Corden Effect

When the writer, songwriter, or prevalent actor inserts the self into a work they are not cut out for, talent-wise.

Named after English actor and talk show host James Corden because of the popular belief that he does not possess the ability to be in all the movie musicals that he, inevitably, stars in.

Lin Manuel Miranda is the embodiment of The James Corden effect, no one wants him there but he’s there because he created it.
