In 1989, John Cusack cemented his place in pop culture history when he starred in the teen rom-com Say Anything as Lloyd Dobler. It has one of the most iconic scenes in movie history of Cusack holding a boom box above his head to show his love interest Diane Court he hasn’t given up on her.

In the 90s, Cusack starred in more memorable roles in Bullets Over Broadway, Being John Malkovich, Grosse Pointe Blank, and High Fidelity. Whenever a movie needed a lovable loser and comedic romantic lead, John Cusack was the guy.

But lately, Cusack has gone missing from the Hollywood spotlight. So, why won’t Hollywood cast this once iconic actor anymore?
