Maybe Terrence Howard can step in to the role?

It’s true, the clown makeup makes her look very darn aged.
I find your lack of Lisa Stansfield disturbing:
Once again, I’m obliged to nominate Angela Bassett as Mace in “Strange Days”:
I think it’s floppy disk, and hard disk, but compact disc. Basically, if it doesn’t look like a discus, it’s a disk.
Fair enough - I could have sworn that #2 opens with him escaping the scene of #1's finale in his newly-recovered car.
It’s a ridiculously short timeline - Theon Greyjoy only killed the puppy about a week ago.
I think at this stage, she counts as a dynastic scion.
“Leon” is a tricky one, because Leon himself is an excellent surrogate parent to the poor orphan Mathilda, but the director’s lens is perpetually leering at pre-teen Natalie Portman.
Oh oh, let’s do a “Keanu films you forgot existed” list. I’ll start:
The original, for all it’s charms, didn’t have Pam Grier, or Joss Ackland, or “Dude - we’re in Heaven and we just mugged three people”, or Jim Martin of Faith No More.
Everyone wants to see the tin man get a heart.
John Cena sort-of already did crank one out (though it’s a comedy, not a proper action flick): 2019's Playing With Fire.
Ah, the Jeopardy gambit. A classic.
It worries me - when you don’t have a bottomless wallet, you have to go all-in on the writing and performance. When you spend that time thinking up awesome visuals you can put into your production, you end up with The Phantom Menace.
I’m calling the split: I’m counting EEAAO as a big 5 winner. Film, Director, Screenplay, and the principal male and female actors both won for acting, even if one was for Supporting Actor gong.
Wesley Snipes was in Passenger 57, not Passenger 58. And no discussion of 90's Snipes is complete without Simon Phoenix in Demolition Man.
Tom Cruise for “War Of The Worlds”? It’s one of his best. Watch the scene where his hitherto dick son leaps up the ferry’s ramp to help pull people onto the ship, and the slow realisation of pride that spreads across Cruise’s face. That, friend, is acting.
Curiously, with a tiny pinch of Danny Trejo.
