Question What happened to John Cusack?

Looking at his IMDB page and he's in a bunch of crap (rated 5.0 or lower) movies and a Chinese produced movies (judging from the original titles and posters).

He was in a lot of my favorite movies from the 80s until the teens and then just seemed to disappear.

Did something happen to his career? Self inflicted?

He is the perfect guy to pull off Grosse Pointe Blank though. To me he has always and will always be a “I’m getting too old for this shit” actor. Even when he was young. Crazy shit would happen and he would take it in stride. So much so, I would love him in a Leathal Weapon remake with a race swap.

Well, that's not technically an omelette.
