Cruise and Leo are the only megastars who haven’t sold out to Marvel or DC. Who will be the last man standing?

Leo looks like he has more integrity, so him
>Leo looks like he has more integrity
That's bloating from alcohol
Yes that too. Would you to take a peek at my virtue? It's pretty big mind you
Frick you, esl monkey
What was in Pitt in?
Deadpool it was a 1 second cameo but still
Lol he got payed nothing who cares.
Nah his legacy is tainted he's not based anymore
yea he fricked up in much bigger ways than that
Cruise isn't a team player, movies have to be vehicles for him, Tom Cruise the actor, with things like character and plot being secondary concerns.
Leo will forever be chasing clout as a serious actor, even as he gets fat, slow, and burnt out.
Neither are really desperate enough to turn to capeshit yet.
>isn't a team player
he refused to make the movie if Kilmer wasn't in
he paid for the actors to train, operate cameras and go on F-18s for hours
plays football on the beach
etc.
dumb take
you didn't understand what he meant when he said he isn't a team player. He isn't literally only focused on himself, he'll still help if it means making a good movie, but the primary focus is always him because Cruise is totally fricking batshit insane. I don't think most users on Cinemaphile from the looks of it truly understand just how narcissistic Tom is. He's literally a psychopath.
thats called being in charge, not not being a team player
I didn't say he wasn't a nice guy, you have misunderstood.
People go to see MCU movies for the characters, not so much the actors, maybe RDJ but even he is a weak boxoffice draw outside of the MCU.
Cruise is one of the very few actors left who can draw people to a movie because of who he is, not because of who he is playing. It is almost the complete reverse of the situation for actors in the MCU.
Cruise doesn't need to play along with franchise, franchises need to play along with him. This is old school Hollywood Star Power, something that is almost extinct.
This. Cruise fulfills the role of the then famed Hollywood Star System. MCU was supposed to bring back producer driven masterpieces but thats not what happened.
And all to make a stupid sequel to a 40 yo mediocre movie nobody asked for, ike everyone else in hollywood. How brave
Get a load of this contrarian
Nobody asked for it yet it surpassed the 1 billion revenue at the box office
lots of people were asking, even if the original was a dumb romance flick, but what we got was certified kino, far better than its predecessor
>lots of people were asking,
nope
>even if the original was a dumb romance flick,
yes
> but what we got was certified kino, far better than its predecessor
what we got is just another truckload resurces wasted on a rehash of dead IP instead of a new project
Neither of these men will ever do capeshit but if one was to do it, I think it would be Cruise. Leo is probably sickened by superhero movies.
Daniel Day Lewis
Denzel Washington, Matthew McConaughey, Daniel Day-Lewis, Ryan Gosling. I can think of more but those are some of the bigger ones.
Goose signed up for Netflix AND Marvel schlock. He’s a traitor.
Dude is in his forties now, probably wants to do a few more blockbusters and make some money. I don't blame him.
Daniel Craig
Not a megastar outside of Bond. Neither were any of the other Bond actors.
>Not a megastar outside of Bond. Neither were any of the other Bond actors.
Sean Connery was definitely a star outside of the Bond films.
Pierce Brosnan and Timothy Dalton both have a quality resume outside of Bond as well, as does Daniel Craig.
you guys really had me with the alternate timeline iron man (which cruise would do way better than RDJ)
Viggo Mortensen
A History Of Violence is based on a DC graphic novel
wow didn't know that actually.
But it's not capeshit, and we're obviously thinking about capeshit in this thread.
Not what OP says
Leo because there are no roles he could pull off in the super hero genre
They're both too short to be believable as super heroes
That didn't stop RDJ
>They're both too short to be believable as super heroes
leo is over 6 foot
Looked up a list of actors the public feels most favorable towards. Let me know if I missed any Marvel or DC films they’ve been in.
https://today.yougov.com/ratings/entertainment/popularity/all-time-actors/all
>Morgan Freeman (Dark Knight trilogy and Red based on a DC Comic)
>Robin Williams (good for him for still being on the list but no DC or Marvel that I saw. Popeye is a newspaper comic but dunno if that counts)
>Denzel Washington (none that I could find)
>James Earl Jones (Judge Dredd is based on a comic but not Marvel or DC it seems)
>Tom Hanks (Road To Perdition based on a DC graphic novel)
>Keanu Reeves (Constantine based on DC Comics and the upcoming DC League of Super Pets)
>Samuel L Jackson (in pretty much every Marvel movie)
>Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man)
>Harrison Ford (Cowboys Vs Aliens is based on a comic book but doesn’t look to be DC or Marvel)
>Sean Connery (good for him still being on the list. League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen is based on a DC comic)
>Danny Devito (Batman Returns, also in Men In Black which is based on a Marvel comic)
>Bruce Willis (Red, Sin City)
>Eddie Murphy (avoided comic films as far as I can tell)
>Bruce Lee (good for him still being on. He was on the Batman show in the 60s. Also was in The Green Hornet which started on radio but also had a popular comic book series.)
>Jack Nicholson (Joker in Batman 89)
>Hugh Jackman (Wolverine in many films)
>Michael J Fox (no Marvel or DC I could find. He was in Annie in 2014 which was based on a newspaper comic)
>Jackie Chan (none that I saw but he’s been in so many films I may have missed something)
>Steve Martin (none that I saw)
>Dwayne Johnson (upcoming DC League Of Super Pets and Black Adam)
That’s the top 20 and there’s another list for actresses but I don’t feel like going through it.
>>Sean Connery (good for him still being on the list. League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen is based on a DC comic)
I had forgotten about that movie, what a capekino it was.
Bokeem Woodbine still exists?
Tom fell for the Dark Universe meme which is even more embarrassing lmao Leo remains king of the world, baby
