That's cuz he was never projected as a romantic hero...neither does he have those looks. Having said that, just cuz he personally didn't make those kind of movies doesn't mean anything. When such movies were made, he didn't make a single comment suggesting to stop making such movies. Secondly, he did a lot of crap movies (like taking law n order into his own hands kinda movies) which can actually inspire ppl to take ludicrous steps.
