London, Sep 22 (ANI): Angelina Jolie has become the only woman to have joined Hollywood hardmen Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger in the Top 10 action hero list.
The Oscar-winning star of ‘Lara Croft: Tomb Raider’ and recent action spy thriller ‘Salt’ was ranked seven with only two percent votes in the survey conducted by online sports nutrition brand www.myprotein.com.
And it was tough guy Stallone, who topped the poll, in which almost 2,000 British men and women voted for their ultimate action hero.
The 64-year-old star of ‘Rocky’, ‘Rambo’ and ‘The Expendables’ scooped 31 per cent of the vote and beat ‘Terminator’ star Schwarzenegger, who came second with 24 per cent.
‘Die Hard’ star Bruce Willis, who made a cameo along with Schwarzenegger in Sly’s action movie homage ‘The Expendables’, was third with 15 per cent, and martial arts legend Bruce Lee was fourth.
Jean Claude Van Damme rounded off the top five, reports the Mirror.
Steven Seagal was voted into sixth place, while Chuck Norris, Will Smith and Jason Statham all finished behind Angelina in the poll, with less than one per cent of the vote each. (ANI)
