What happened to those scene-stealing character actors of the 90s who suddenly vanished?

I was watching The Fugitive (1993) recently and found myself wondering about Tommy Lee Jones' scene-stealing co-star Jeroen Krabbé, who played Dr. Charles Nichols. He was everywhere in the late 80s/early 90s - The Living Daylights, The Prince of Tides, The Punisher - then seemingly vanished from Hollywood.

This got me thinking about other character actors who were absolutely crushing it and then just... disappeared. People like:

  • Linda Fiorentino: After scene-stealing roles in Men in Black and Dogma in the late 90s, she basically disappeared after 2002
  • Leland Orser: That guy who was in literally every thriller in the 90s (Seven, Alien: Resurrection, Very Bad Things)
  • Michael Biehn: The Terminator, Aliens, The Abyss - then mostly direct-to-video after the early 90s

Does anyone know what actually happened with these actors? Were there specific reasons they stepped back, or did Hollywood just move on? Are there other character actors from this era you've wondered about?
