Arnold regardless of his movie quality, at least worked with iconic film directors as well.

Dwayne just goes where the money is. At least Dave Bautista is making an effort to work with auteurs.

He doesn't need to. His image is that of the 80s action star reborn ala Steven Segal, Stallone, Arnie, Van Damme, Dolph Lundgren. Maybe he will start doing arthouse movies after hes past his peak in 10 years or so. Why put him in a lowscale movie where all he does is talk. What a waste of his physique and machoness.

Versatility is not going to be one of Dwayne's acting strengths (it never was for Arnold). He's riding high on the kinds of films and roles he does right now (while getting super rich) so I doubt that will change in the near future.

Auteurs like Rian Johnson.
Fact though is that the politics agenda in Hollywood is killing potential for good action stars and filmmakers.
Too many can'ts. Can't be a white guy. If it is a white guy, has to be an emo type.
Can't be this, can't be that...
Like the news media, Hollywood is destroying itself with its focus on anything other than merit in decision-making, and hiring total feebs who follow orders.

He should have been cast in one of the Creed films, he was great as a wrestling heel, he would have been a really good antagonist.
