Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone or Bruce Willis are veteran stars still fighting in action movies.

“Old, but not useless” is Arnold Schwarzenegger ‘s catchphrase in Terminator: Genisys . But he is not the only veteran star still fighting in action movies.

Sylvester Stallone

“Rambo” is one of the most prestigious and active stars in the world of veteran actors. Stallone himself gathered contemporaries such as Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis or Jean-Claude Van Damme to perform. The three Expendables movies are filled with bloody fight scenes of the 90s.

At the age of 69, this muscular actor still doesn’t want to rest. At the end of this year, he will return to the role of boxer Rocky. Balboa in the movie Creed . In addition, Stallone is also writing the script for part five of Rambo and preparing to make part four of The Expendables 4.

Liam Neeson

After success with Taken , Liam Neeson “specialized” in thrilling action films with moderate budgets.

From 2008 until now, he has appeared in a series of films of this genre such as Non-Stop, A Walk Among the Tombstones, Run All Night, and two sequels to Taken.

Although these films received many different compliments and criticisms, the Irish actor’s serious acting was always highly appreciated.

After completing the historical film Silence directed by Martin Scorsese, it is likely that Liam Neeson will also join Sylvester Stallone in The Expendables 4.

Jean-Claude Van Damme

It is no coincidence that Sylvester Stallone had to go out of his way to invite Jean-Claude Van Damme to play the villain in The Expendables 2. With his famous kicks, the Belgian actor is one of the few people who is “tough-faced” enough. ” to face Stallone on the silver screen.

In real life, Van Damme is also one of the most “lucky” stars, possessing a black belt in karate and an impressive record of 18-1 in the kickbox category.

Even though he is 55 years old, he still confidently competes with junior boxers like Alain Moussi, Dave Bautista or Gina Carano in the martial arts movie Kickboxer: Vengeance (released next year).

Steven Seagal

Once a notorious name in Hollywood in the 90s with movies like Under Siege or On Deadly Ground, Steven Seagal is now a bit rusty and no longer at his peak.

This star famous for Aikido was once invited to participate in The Expendables 3, but in the end he withdrew due to conflicts with some members of the film crew.

At the present time, Steven Seagal spends a lot of time on his music career and social activities, but he still regularly appears in B-class action movies like A Good Man or Absolution.

Chuck Norris

With a career spanning nearly half a century, the name Chuck Norris has become legendary in the hearts of martial arts film fans.

His dominance even created a trend of making “fictional” photos and memes on the Internet. What’s interesting is that Norris himself used one of these stories in The Expendables 2.

After this movie, when everyone thought that the actor born in 1940 had really retired, he suddenly announced it. will star in the movie The Finisher as a retired assassin.

Danny Trejo

Possessing a cold face and rough appearance, Danny Trejo is a seasoned name specializing in villain roles like in Con Air or Desperado.

One of the rare times he had a leading role was in the two episodes Machete and Machete Kills, in which Danny Trejo played a rough but extremely courageous hero. At the age of 70, he is still healthy enough to appear in more than 5 movies this year.

The Mexican-born actor is also planning to make the third part of the Machete series called Machete Kills in Space (a parody of a movie clip in Machete Kills).

Bruce Willis

Since 2013, the hero of Die Hard seems to be having trouble with a series of underrated works such as A Good Day to Die Hard , The Prince or Vice.

Interspersed between these films was a scandal when he quit his role in The Expendables 3 because he did not receive a salary of $1 million a day, an action Stallone criticized as “greedy and lazy”.

After the comedy Rock the Kasbah released later this year, Bruce Willis will return to the action movie genre in director Steven C. Miller’s Extraction to prove that he is not out of time yet.

Harrison Ford

Star Wars fans were extremely happy to hear that Harrison Ford returned to play the role of a lifetime as Han Solo in Star Wars: The Force Awakens . Photos revealed on the set show that the 73-year-old actor is still very robust and refined.

Currently, there are some rumors that Han Solo will die in this new part to make way for a separate episode, focusing on this character’s past.

Regardless, audiences can still see Harrison Ford again in Blade Runner 2 , where he reprises another of his legendary roles as Rick Deckard.

Arnold Schwarzenegger

At the age of 68, Arnold Schwarzenegger is still the name that attracts the most attention in the blockbuster Terminator: Genisys.

After the film’s release, many critics criticized the film but still appreciated the appearance of the former California governor. One of the most interesting scenes in the movie is when the T-800 robot he plays has to fight a clone of himself.

In this movie, in addition to the classic line: “I will come back”, Schwarzenegger also has another equally impressive line: “Old, but not useless”. That is also the declaration of a generation of veteran actors who still do not want to “wash their hands of the sword” in their acting career.
