TOTAL GROSS: $27m

Sam J. Jones played the American footballer who finds himself in the middle of an interplanetary war, with 'death' himself, Max Von Sydow, playing villain Ming the Merciless.

Despite appearing to be the perfect man to play Flash, Jones was somewhat disappointed to see the movie for the first time, and discover his part had been entirely dubbed from start to finish by a - still - unkown actor. That'll learn him for not getting on with the director.
