  • Getting your big break in Hollywood can take years of toiling, filled with constant rejection and heartbreak. There are countless stories of actors who finally made it big after decades of trying.
    Once they’re on top of the food chain, the grim reality is that it’s also hard to maintain your A-list status. The years of hard work can end in the blink of an eye, and you can find yourself irrelevant again.
    Hollywood is a hard mountain to stay on top of because everyone wants a crack at the peak. The actors on this list have reached the top, but have been knocked off and can’t seem to get back up. To find out who they are, watch the video!

    Tarantino (one of my favs) has a history of taking actors who are slowly declining in reputation and giving them new stardom. I think he could totally do that for Billy Zane (also one of my favs). Zane is one of those actors who can get really creepy characters done well (like Buscemi, one of Tarantino’s many colleagues) and his work in “Blood & Concrete” and “I woke up early the day I died” is kinda similar in a way to works of Tarantino.

      +shizukagozen777 Agreed. I was surprised to see how many here reognized his talent. I wish he paid more attention to his scripts & PR. He should've been in a few mainstream hits when he was younger but if he lost weight & fixed himself up, he can still take on a great role. He's done some great stuff but they were overwhelmed by too many poor roles like the movies with Uwe Boll (who sued him) & other silly stuff. People are associating him with bad C movies when he's capable of better. But he's back with Lucid. Too small a role but hope his upcoming projects are better.

For years, I had no idea he even wore one. There are tons of actors that either wear toupees or have hair transplants done. Besides, they are made up to look according to whichever character they are playing so it really doesn't matter if they have hair or not. The excuse of losing one's hair is not a legitimate excuse for not seeing an actor on screen much anymore as hair can be replaced.
      John Travolta and Nicholas Cage also wear a hairpieces, as do many other actors.

    ''Difficult'' means that some actors,actress refused to sleep with directors,producers. Didn't Peter Jackson come out and say that he wanted two actress to star in his movies but Harvey Weinstien told him both were difficult to work with. Harvey blacklisted many actresses labeling them Difficult. Megan Fox and many others lost work because they stood up and said No. Jackson now admits to being lied to by Harvey about the actresses he wanted to work with.

    Seems like Jim Carrey CHOSE to step back, which is natural as Hollywood became more greedy and focused on superheroes remakes and popularity instead of good scripts and talent. Guess this applies somewhat to Billy Zane too. Others like J Love Hewitt wisely chose steady TV careers, but I suppose missed out on the now and then big screen/indie role for whatever reason. It's silly to expect great actors to be in starring big screen roles all the time. It limits their range and isn't practical. Tom Cruise does this and he is more of a product based on heavy HW PR.

      It is another of many sets of CDs or other formats producers of mediocre vids purchase cheaply to use without having to pay for rights and decent musicians. Mostly for schools, small companies and churches for their video work...…….

      Ya, I think he should have won an award for his role in Titanic. He's good in Tombstone & really scary in Dead Calm.

    Katherine Heigl legitimately deserves to be blacklisted from Hollywood for taking her name off of the Emmy nominees list because she felt the writing wasn't up to par. That is such a pretentious thing to do, especially when Grey's Anatomy made her a star. It was a complete slap in the face to not only Shonda Rhimes but the entire cast.

    Billy Zane was great in Titanic. That's a very difficult role I would think. I would have loved to see him in more movies.
