These Are The Greatest Action Stars of All Time

Steven Seagal

Steven Seagal is like the modern-day Chuck Norris, even though modern-day Chuck Norris could still kick his butt. He was an action-film icon during the '80s and '90s best known for his jet-black ponytail. He was in the films Above the Law, Marked for Death, Out for Justice, Under Siege, and Executive Decision.

Will Smith

When most people think of Will Smith, they think of his comedy films and role in Fresh Prince of Bel Aire. But when you really think about it, he was in two of the best action flicks out there. Independence Day, Men in Black, and I Am Legend are some of the most popular action films in the modern world of film.
