She may have just won an Oscar, but Julianne Moore's acting abilities reportedly got her dropped from a major project.

According to Turkish media outlet Hurriyet Daily News, the Still Alice star was dropped as the face of a Turkish tourism campaign due to her "poor acting" skills. Say what?!

The 54-year-old star is said to have shot a promo vid for the campaign in LA last year, featuring her revisiting childhood journeys to Turkey.

But when the Turkish Culture and Tourism Ministry disapproved of her "poor acting" in the flick and demanded a reshoot, things turned sour.

Julianne allegedly declined the reshoot, losing the advertising agency who made the film $1.9 million. That's gotta hurt.
