Why the longevity??


This guy has made more flops than any other actor of the last 25 years. I reall don't understand why he keeps getting work. He must have a great agent.

According to Boxofficemojo he's had only 3 films that have grossed more than $100,000,000 domestically. But considering their budgets, thats hardly an accomplishment.
- Traffic - Budget - N/A
- The Day After Tommorow - Budget - $125,000,000
- GI JOE - Budget - $175,000,000
I don't understand it. With over 90% of union-card holding actors, or at least eligible for union, remaining unemployed, why does this guy keep getting hired?
