Film school type actors.
Not side hustle that became main hustle

For who?? None of these guys are young enough to play the long game, pause.

It would happen quicker than the long game (pause). Take whatever pay cut that is needed to get a dope group together. The project would do numbers leading to bigger budgets/payments for sequels or other projects. Even better if they pool up and do it themselves independently, which should be happening anyway.

It’s like asking why Bruce Willis, Will Ferrell, Brad Pitt, and Tom Hanks haven’t done s film together.
It could work. George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Bernie Mac, Andy Garcia, Carl Reiner, Julia Roberts, and a bunch of other A-listers made Ocean's Eleven; which was not only a great movie, but it spawned 2 sequels and a reboot.
:yeshrug:
One easy way to get Denzel, Martin, Eddie, Will, Foxx, Forrest Whitaker, and some young brehs together would be to remake A Soldier's Story. As a nice twist, Denzel could play Sarge this time.

Acting isn't a young man's game, though. Samuel L., Denzel, Laurence Fishburn, Charles Sutton, and Forrest Whitaker still got it.
Hell, Morgan Freeman has been old since I was a baby, and he can still put on his jersey and give you 18 pts & 10 assists.

Freeman is the Kareem or Duncan of this gig, he got a few moves but they're potent and the longevity is unmatched. He dont even need to be on screen.

Oceans eleven was already a reboot of an old movie.

An ensemble cast is completely different from asking why those four haven’t specifically been in a film together.

They’re too old for all of them to be in a soldier’s story and Martin can’t do serious dramas.
