Fresh Prince to Bad Boys??!! The juxtaposition couldn't be greater Empire. And I agree with the names already mentioned. Nic Cage, John Travolta and even RDJ! Read More

No mention of Michael Keaton in here? He might not have been the BEST Batman, but he was a very good one - a major coup for Mr. Mom. Read More

I think most people are agreed that RDJ, Travolta and especially Nic Cage SHOULD be on this list. Sigourney Weaver didn't get a mention either. Read More

Nic Cage and John Travolta. Both oscar nominated for films that could never be considered as action, they both appeared in one of THE action films of the last 20 years, FACE/OFF.
Robert Downey Jr as well. Again, seen as being a SERIOUS actor (rehab aside) he then jumps into the superhero mode as IRON MAN.

As with others I'm a bit surprised at the omission of Nic Cage. Going from from quirky leading man roles in the likes of Arizona]Honeymoon in Vegasp;knd fery bit as impressive as Matt Damon's transformation to action star and predated it by a good few years. Read More

Well someone has already mentioned Robert Downey jr. Iron Man kicked him into action. But also, Johnny Depp wasn't really an action man until Pirates and Once Upon a Time in Mexico. Also, want to point out the Hugh Jackman was a song and dance man until X-Men came a calling Read More

Bruce Willis: before Die Hard he was 'that dude from Moonlighting and Blind Date'?
Nic Cage: he'd done more than 20 films before Con Air
Will Smith: Seriously. The dude was famous for sit-coms and family-friendly hip-hop.
