Dolph Lundgren had the shortest box-office boom, and Grammer would be much lower down if not for his work in Trans4mers this year. Kellan Lutz sadly nabs sixth place just on the back of the Twilight franchise. Dolph Lundgren: $449 million ( Rocky IV : $127 million)įord runs away with this in a landslide, but Banderas' strong third-place finish is thanks to his work as Puss in Boots in the Shrek series.
Kellan Lutz: $1.44 billion ( Twilight: Eclipse, $300 million).Arnold Schwarzenegger: $1.75 billion ( Terminator 2, $204 million).Sylvester Stallone: $1.89 billion ( First Blood Part II, $150 million).Antonio Banderas: $2.17 billion ( Shrek 2, $441 million).Mel Gibson: $2.21 billion ( Signs, $227 million).Harrison Ford: $3.96 billion (highest grossing: Star Wars, $460 million).As everyone has scattered with their own projects, like Stallone’s Rocky IV director’s cut and Jason Statham’s duties on The Meg franchise, as well as the Fast and Furious spin-off Hobbs and Shaw, it almost feels like The Expendable 4 is dead for good. The production itself was beset by all sorts of problems, as a PG-13 rating and an eventually leaked copy of the film were among the reasons some have cited for the third installment’s ultimate disappointment at the box office. With such great memories comes some bittersweet truth, as The Expendables 3, so far, has proven to be the de facto finale of the franchise. With that mythic conflict at an end, the sky was the limit for who they could get to join in, and the two ensuing sequels proved it. For the first time, Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger, two titans once engaged in a bit of an historic rivalry, worked together for the fans. Of course, the centerpiece of it all is the fact that this throwback to those simpler days reminds us that 2010’s The Expendables was a pretty historic moment in action cinema history.
