16. Jason Statham
I cant imagine Jason Statham having a very long shelf life. Hes your generic action film actor, except he doesnt play it nearly as well as someone like Bruce Willis. His most recent hits have been The Expendables films, and despite being billed as one of the top stars, I doubt people are turning up to see him. Its all about Stallone, Willis, Schwarzengger. Household action names. Statham churns out a couple action films a year that all flop and no one really cares about. In fact, in his near fifteen year career, Statham has never starred in a film (other than The Expendables) that has opened to more than $20,000,000 (Box Office Mojo doesnt count Gnomeo And Juliet or Collateral apparently). Hes far too generic to be taken seriously. Anyone can star in an action film. John Cena did it, and he is one of the most wooden actors ever to grace the screen. I cant help but think that if Statham tried his hand at wrestling, hed experience more success.
15. Kevin James
It pains me to say this, but yes, no one will remember Kevin James in 20 years time. Now excuse me while I go take a cold shower... I wish he would stop doing family movies. I think hes pretty funny, but hes just not on the level of someone like Adam Sandler. James is a bit of a newbie on the film scene, having been a TV star for a majority of his career, and his transition to film started off well. Then... he kinda bombed. There is only so many fat jokes you can hear before youve heard them all. He needs to attach himself to Sandler more often to be considered a better box office draw, but even then hed only be remembered for being Sandlers lackey, if that. Sorry Kevin, I love you, but sadly, not everyone else does.
