How about someone who looks like they're from the 1930"s/40"s and not a gym bunny meathead.

Edit also a latec20"s early 30"s actor that looks they're age and not like a child.

I think they'd need to look outside of the red carpet I-love-myself-so-much mainstream.
 
Pedro is just too old for the role. Harrison Ford was 38 in Raiders so 'if' they really have to do a remake they need to find someone young to last a trilogy.
 
Another flavour of the month actor, why does that happen so much these days? You see an actor in a show that gets popular then you cant move for seeing them all over the place? Not a bit of wonder people just roll their eyes when they see their name linked to anything.

Now is the right time to do it if they're going to do it. You have an intro with an old Ford telling a story to a (great-)grandchild: "Let me tell you about ..." and we switch to the tale with the new actor in the role.

It's been happening quite a bit. I miss the 90s and early 2000s where Hollywood had a number of heavy hitters and a number that could play any role. These days it does feel like a new flavour actor pops up and then that person just gets all the roles until the producers become bored and they find a new flavour

On the female side currently the hot flavour of the month is Jenna Ortega, she's already appeared in about 10 movies and TV shows in the last year and there is another 4 productions coming out this year that she stars in as well.. it's like geez leave some work others why don't you

Media.

Anyhow Star Power is dieing for several reasons. The main one being we probably have too much access to the actors and they have too many platforms to express themself.

There used to be a wee bit of an enigma surrounding actors and we had them up on pedestals. We now get to see into their lives and find out more about their personalities.

We get to find out these people are bonkers and not in the good way.

For a start Movies is a working man medium something the media and Hollywood have forgotten. A lot are getting priced out of it and most now are a bit more selective on who they give their hard earned money to.

Genuine question: do you observe your own participation in this?

When I browsed twitter / X awhile back, I noticed that almost every single thing I was ‘being fed’ was designed to provoke an emotional response and therefore a reaction. Posts would either state a blunt opinion (with plenty of room to counter it) or say ‘what would you do / think’? The more I read, the more wound up and frustrated I became.

I eventually concluded that despite it being compelling to be emotionally provoked, it was adding absolutely nothing other than a sense of disbelief, injustice or annoyance.

So I stopped reading, mostly, and feel all the better for it.

The same applies to these news sites and YouTube channels that provide ‘media updates’. Unless you interact with people directly, you are probably being ‘fed’ a select set of information that’s trying to provoke some sort of engagement from you - including a desire to read more and ‘stay on top of things’.

If person has an opinion or world view you disagree with, it doesn’t mean they aren’t down the soup kitchen, working hard or caring for others. Generally, as there are some exceptions, I don’t think it’s worth the energy forming a strong opinion of a person (celebrity) based on info you are being ‘fed’. A person is more than that and being disgruntled at celebrities for whatever reason isn’t adding anything other than a need to react and feed a compelling emotional response.

That’s just me though. And I do still read Twitter occasionally… there is a ‘reality TV’ intrigue to it… very ‘watchable’ but best viewed as the trash that it is :p
