These Are The Greatest Action Stars of All Time

Liam Neeson

Liam Neeson had a popular career before the Taken films, but he's easily known as the angry, vengeful father who is trying to get his family back. "I will find you, and I will kill you," is still a common reference in pop culture despite the film being 13 years old! He also starred in The Dead Pool, Darkman, Star Wars, and The A-Team.

Chuck Norris

Chuck Norris is the face of badassery. This man only starred in action-packed thrillers. He was who all men wanted to be, and who all men feared. Even today, jokes about how tough Chuck Norris is are still prevalent despite the fact that his career has been in retirement for nearly 10 years. He's been in The Octagon, Forced Vengeance, Missing in Action, Code of Silence, and The Delta Force.
