I agree with all this. Frankly, while I think he'll continue to get a choice of interesting roles, I would be happier if he didn't go the big-Hollywood route, and even big stars like Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise don't necessarily command the automatic draw they did twenty years ago. Star power is not what it used to be; stats seem to indicate that people are going to see films for content rather than for actors.

I've spoken to people who barely know what the Wikileaks scandal was all about - I'm not at all surprised the film isn't doing well.

He'll be fine. He'll have a solid, respectable career with, I'm certain, a rich variety of roles to choose from.
