Francis For Coppola. I fully believe he started declining in the 80’s. He never came close to what he achieved in the 70’s. I remember seeing Twixt & thinking to myself, this is the guy who did The Godfather?
I’ll throw in Stephen Dorff. He had something cooking in the 90’s though it seemed not getting the lead in Titanic was his decline.
Contance Wu, anyone? What happened after Hustlers?

clive owen has to have one of the quickest rises and falls from the top of my head. dude seemed to be everywhere.
that 2004-2006 stint was sick with closer, inside man, sin city, and children of men and then after that that he wasn’t in anything really acclaimed or a big box office hit outside of the knick which came almost 10 years after children of men and is now almost 10 years old.
i know he was entering his mid 40’s around 07 but i really wish we got to see him in more quality roles cause he’s mad talented.

Zhang Yimou’s career never recovered after Hero. He just became China’s propaganda machine.

A few years ago we discussed Gosling in this thread and now look at him With the Fall Guy, about to have two big commercial/critical/pop-culture successes in a row I wouldn't say the same for Fassbender yet. I don't know what he's doing next, Next Goal thingy was a huge dud and The Killer was critically good but didn't seem to go much beyond that.

What happened after Hustlers?I think she lost some movie roles because she couldn’t get out of her tv contract for Fresh off the Boat, and since she was unable to capitalize when she had some heat, she kinda lost her opportunities.

There is a separation between perhaps taking a hiatus and actually having zero good opportunities to take.

Speaking of decline....anyone noticed Benicio del Toro has not been talked about for 8 years?
Sicario was his last stand.
Bardem isnt talked about but his performances gets namedropped on threads on best of decade stuff. And del toro just seems like a blank space now. Douglas might have passed him at this point and I remember in '00 everyone saying del toro awesome Douglas sucks in Traffic.

Benicio had a pretty good role in the best segment of The French Dispatch. He was in the Soderbergh No Sudden Move film, and that Escape from Dannemora series. His career seems pretty much where it's always been.

His career seems pretty much where it's always been. See I disagree. I think he avoids the tag of being classified as bad ala Hathaway and Watts after 2012. And Penn after 2008, but I don't think anyone really loves him in any of those movies you mentioned where in the 00s there were people heralding his work on a regular basis.
