Going through the Star Bonds made me realize when these franchises milk the audience for the Nth time, they provide 'pension' to a set of has-been actors, usually quite a hefty pension considering the other (limited) work they might be getting in a VoD series or made for video (do they exist anymore?)/TV movies.
JPANT MLAWR VHUDG etc are living well due to Bad Boys & its likely the only big movie they get in future would be a Bad Boys 5 in 2026/27/28.
* if any of them dies in BADB4 pls dont post spoiler replies (even though it's unlikely I'll see it, but there might be others who do).
Ludacris (not sure how much royalty he gets from his rap music anymore), Jordana Brewster & to a lesser extent Tyrese Gibson (& maybe others) are also similarly living off the Fast franchise.
