I’m wondering where are the young Hollywood actors today like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Chuck Norris, Steven Seagal, Vin Diesel, Bruce Willis so on.

Is bodybuilding or martial arts does not sell well today like it did in the 80s and 90s.

You’re in a desert walking along in the sand when all of the sudden you look down, and you see a tortoise, it’s crawling toward you. You reach down, you flip the tortoise over on its back. The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can’t, not without your help. But you’re not helping. Why is that?

May be yung people today don’t have interest in Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, Steven Seagal, Vin Diesel, Bruce Willis so on like older folks growing up in the 80s and 90s.

That why Hollywood not making movies around actors today. Young people don’t care about actor like older folks growing up in the 80s and 90s.

I dunno, Every movie that has been coming out this summer is full of young actors, like the latest supergirl movie.
then there these folks Anya Taylor-Joy, Milly Alcock, Nicholas Galitzine, Zendaya, etc

I think there's a new generation and they seem popular enough.

That not the issue there are lots of young actors but movies are not made around them like young actors of the 80s and 90s.

In the 80s and 90s you see movie even if the plot was terrible movie just to see the actor that not the case now.

You where not watching action movies in the 80s and 90s you where watching actors that had movies made around them.

Take Clint Eastwood in many of the Dirty Harry movies today they would have random actors.
 
Are there any?
They are all on youtube

Only oldfarts like me watch hollywood where old grandfathers are acting their assus off )

To me, they were more hero caricatures than actors. I don't miss them or the type.
