For sure something is keeping people looking and acting younger.
- UncleOxidant 6y agoWilford Brimley was only fifty years old at the time of this film's production. He had to have his hair dyed gray in order to make him look geriatric. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088933/trivia https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088933/trivia
- brandonmenc 6y agoPaul Rudd had access to 4d3d3d3 which - sadly - was not available in Wilford Brimley's time.
- anticsapp 6y agoNow, Tayne I can get into.
- zxcmx 6y agoI think it's hard to judge with movie stars though because they are really not representative of the general population. There are particular selection pressures deciding who gets screen time, and the standards of today are not the standards of 40 years ago.
- monadic2 6y agoIt would not be uncommon to have plastic surgery, for instance.
- dogma1138 6y agoWilford was artificially aged for the film especially to be able to showcase the “improvements” it was easier to make an actor look older than younger. It also doesn’t help that he wasn’t exactly in good shape. It’s quite a bit about genetics and lifestyle look at Val Kilmer for example he aged quite terribly and he is only 2 years older than Tom Cruise but looks 2+ decades older.
- byproxy 6y agoVal Kilmer also had a bout with throat cancer.
- dogma1138 6y agoYeah he did, so fine let’s take Dean Norris the guy is younger than Tom Cruise but he looked 50 since about his 20’s.
- ekianjo 6y agoTom Cruise has most certainly had cosmetic surgery several times, so there's that.
- sundvor 6y agoTom Cruise's physical and dietary regimen is a lot more interesting. I believe it includes restricting calories and really changing up the workouts. Further to that his dedication to the art is second to none, whether it involves learning a new language or performing stunts and physical feats at an almost Goggins-like level of defying what's possible. I see a sharp mind in a trained body, belonging to a person with an impeccable work ethic.

- nradov 6y agoNah, it must have been the exorcism of body thetans that kept him looking young.
- dogma1138 6y agoBased on the acts he performs he is probably in better shape than most 18 year olds and for sure better than most 30 year olds. At this point his movies are what crazy stunts can I get the studio to pay for today.
- dec0dedab0de 6y agolook at John Oliver an John Cena, both born on the same exact day. The differences between any two people don't prove anything.
