I like how most of the "man's man" type actors in Hollywood lean conservative or libertarian: Mel Gibson, Arnold, Kurt Russell, Tom Selleck, Clint, Bruce Willis

May I add two more names to your list? ... Ronald Reagan and John Wayne.

Can someone explain how Hollywood went from John Wayne to Kevin Costner in one generation?

Sure...the generation(s) that fought in the 1940s vs the generations that fought in the 1960s.
