Action hero movies are an enjoyable watch for any age group. They develop an auric story behind the protagonist, make him beat villains, and label them as a superstar. Some such stars are Arnold Schwarzenegger, Tom Cruise, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Bruce Willis, and several others. To many, Arnold is at the top of the chain. But for the majority ones, his biggest rival, Sylvester Stallone, ranks on top. 

For years he went around wanting to play Rocky and finally achieved his dreams. Fans loved the movie from start to finish, and he became the face of action hero movies. Even UFC commentator and podcaster Joe Rogan explained how he made action movies believable at his age. 

Is Arnold Schwarzenegger not on top?

While many consider Schwarzenegger to be the action megastar with movies like Terminator, Conan the Barbarian, Commando, and many other blockbusters, Rogan believed what Stallone did at 70 remains remarkable. He featured in the Expendables and looked jacked. It impressed him, and he discussed the action hero’s body. 

“Who the f*** in their 70s is believable in an action role. But when you see him doing it you’re like, I kind of believe it. The guy’s still jacked,” mentioned Rogan. Apart from his body, his unique look and cryptic voice became important factors for his success. Therefore, he is one of the finest action hero stars across the map.
