While it’s true that stars such as Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio operate in the top tier of Hollywood, there’s something to be said about the consistent hits that stars such asJason Statham and Gerard Butlerare able to deliver in their own weight class. Butler has carved a solid niche for himself as the star of meat-and-potatoes action movies like Olympus Has Fallen, which spawned a successful franchise. The movie remains a hit on streaming over a decade after its release.

According to FlixPatrol, Olympus Has Fallen was the 10th-most-watched movie on the free Tubi streaming service on October 13, when the leaderboard was topped by Brendan Fraser’s The Mummy.
