The Danes I mentioned are 30s NOW but they made the movies

I base my opinions upon when in their 20s.
"Wright, Ruffulo, Dillahunt, Linney, Hoffman, Keener, Renner, etc. "
None of these are really leading actors, with the exception of Hoffman who plays mostly quirky, zany characters. Linney I think is static. Keener is the real deal but she doesn't seem to get very many roles in very good films.
You're kind of playing a little unfairly here, as well. I mentioned all the most well-known American actors that star in 99% of the films. You pick the character actor types that only get the minor films, the indies which is a far cry from the Danish actors.
Powerful, non-kooky American male leads just don't seem to exist (Dillahunt...... for Christ's sake!)
I look back a generation and I see plenty of strong American lead actors. If you haven't noticed a drastic change to the adolescent, you aren't paying attention.
