I know I'm supposed to be clever here and I'll probably get flamed for this, but I think Tom Cruise would be a decent choice.
Aside from smaller roles early in his career (like any other actor), he hasn't really been in anything that was awful. There's a good variety there, from mindless action to decent drama, and nothing overly self-indulgent. You'd get A Few Good Men, Top Gun, the Mission Impossibles, Collateral, War of the Worlds, Minority Report... there's some good stuff there. And even an Austin Powers movie.
And if you hate the guy's personality, the rules don't say anything about having to watch his talk show appearances too.
