Anybody else wondering why Steven Seagal isn't part of this franchise and there's no news of him being invited to join? Popular theories seem to be that he's too fat or nobody likes him. Or both. There's also the fact that (as mentioned in the B Action Movie Thread), these movies require a lot of running, and he was never able to do that without looking pretty silly, even when he was in shape.
Whaddya think, Chewers? Does any particular theory seem more plausible to you than any others? Or have you got some other theories of your own? It doesn't bother me too much. I'm not a huge fan of his or anything.
I've only seen two of his movies ("Above the Law" and "Under Siege"), which I watched for the first time last summer. I decided to finally check out some work from he and Chuck Norris to find out why they were such '80s/early '90s action icons. The movies were fun, but his 'acting' was quite jarringly mediocre. I just think if this is to be the ultimate '80s/early '90s action stars reunion franchise, his presence in it seems like a no-brainer.
