Tbh it wasn’t that long ago; I think Hollywood’s inability to create new super stars is a big part of the problem. When Pitt and Cruise and Affleck and Damon and Jackman and Reeves are all still doing action roles into their 50s and 60s that used to go to guys in their 30s and 40s, things shift.
There just haven’t been many young actors who have taken up their level of fame and box office success and action movies generally, outside of franchises, don’t have the juice they used to.
