Robert Englund – 73 Years Old
One of our favorite bad guys out there for sure is Robert Englund with his iconic role as Freddy Krueger in the 1984 movie The Nightmare On Elm Street series. With many other movies in his repertoire, Englund left the biggest mark as the character that supports Heather who starts experiencing nightmares similar to Freddy’s experience at that time. His impact made Strangers Things’ series creators ask Englund to join the cast of seasons’ 4 – over 25 years after the movie initially went out to the screens.

Sophie Marceau, 53 Years Old
Beautiful French actress Sophie Marceau is often top of these lists, even though she herself didn’t seem to think of herself as attractive, saying “I’ve never really been beautiful. I’m photogenic…” Either way, she was the focus of public attention since appearing on screens as a teenager with the 1980 film La Boum, and then starred in numerous European films over the next decade and a half. Soon she also joined Hollywood to star in Braveheart opposite Mel Gibson, and the James Bond film The World is not Enough.

The golden hair beauty who has many films in her repertoire is also memorable thanks to her role as Beatrix Kiddo “The Bride” in the Kill Bill trilogy by Quentin Tarantino. Thurman has announced she will focus on raising her daughter and made only small appearances on both big and small screen ever since. Her standout performance was definitely as The Bride, where her karate moves were razor-sharp and her no-nonsense attitude inspiring.

Michael Keaton, 68 Years Old
Third Batman to appear on our list! What can we say, we sure love the dark knight… Keaton played Bruce Wayne twice; in 1989 and 1992. That last fantastic film that we saw him in was the ironic and surreal Birdman, where Keaton parodied himself and many of his counterpart’s shortcomings. His piercing, ice-blue eyes and strong, prominent jaw are both standout features in the action hero, as well as his bad-boy personality.

Louise Fletcher, 86 Years Old
There aren’t too many female villain characters that are not Disney related in film or TV history, so when naming the few one can remember, you can rest assure Nurse Ratched will be one of them.
With a renewal by Netflix in 2020, the chilling story of nurse Ratched and her brother is making waves and captivates you throughout the plot, making you wonder rather you like the complex character or not? While the 2020 version tangles and shows more aspects of the character and the known story, the 1975 movie’s version staring Fletcher as nurse Ratched will be remembered as one of the best performances by female actress portraying a villain of all times.

She took a break from acting for a while but made a comeback in 2013. She has changed her style and appearance throughout the years several times, as you can see, and we loved each one.

The 54-year-old Irish actress and model made her big breakthrough in Indiana Jones as Elsa, the Nazi-sympathising archaeologist. Later on, she featured in other movies such as Taffin along with Tom Cruz, Major League with Charlie Sheen, and more. There are few actresses that have appeared alongside so many big names in the industry, and while she is not as well recognized as superstars like Sheen and Cruz, she is an incredible actress in her own right.

Ben Affleck, 47 Years Old
Another renowned actor who had the privilege of playing Bruce Wayne on the big screen. He made three appearances as Batman and had our heart in each one of them! Affleck is a masterful action star who is also very talented in the drama and romance departments, even making a name for himself as a fantastic screenplay writer. You just need to excuse his part in Gigli, if you do not mind.
Ben Affleck
Caroline Munro, 71 Years Old
English actress Caroline Munro has acted in numerous films, in particular in the action, horror, and science fiction genres. If you want to experience the true horror of late 20th-century horror, then any of Munro’s countless thrills and chills films will make your night a binge-worthy experience. Try to watch these films with a pinch of salt, however, as many of them have not aged well. Munro is a cultural icon for grindhouse horror fans.

Bonnie Bedelia, 72 Years Old
You probably remember Bedelia from her parts in the Die Hard films, being Bruce Willis’s character’s love interest. She has also enjoyed many theater productions and lovers in her life. Amazingly, Bedelia began her life’s work as a ballet dancer. We commend her for keeping such an almost magical beauty and a cool and reserved demeanor throughout. Bedelia has had various marriages and is the mother of two sons – incredible.
Bonnie Bedelia

Capshaw was born in 1953 with the name Kathleen Sue Spielberg. You probably remember her for her sensual and adventurous role in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Her golden locks and bright, icy blue eyes could melt anyone’s heart. With a beautician as a mother, it comes as no surprise that Capshaw maintained her fantastic beauty to this day. We would not put it past her to become an eternal beauty symbol.

Lauren Hutton, 76 Years Old
Actress and model Lauren Hutton was born all the way back in 1943, and as you can see from a recent picture, she is still as fabulous now as she was back in the day. Her acting career began in 1968 when she starred in Paper Lion with Alan Alda. Since then, she has featured in Nip/Tuck, which is ironic, given that the show is all about cosmetic surgery. Go figure!
Lauren Hutton
Lana Wood, 74 Years Old
You will remember Lana Wood in her breakthrough performance as the femme fatale Bond Girl in Diamonds Are Forever. Wood has incredibly exotic features, which are probably taken from her parents’ place as Russian immigrants. They had to flee the country during the Russian Civil War and found asylum in America. Thank goodness that they chose the United States, as we would have not have been graced with Lana Wood if they had chosen another place.
Lana Wood
Patsy Kensit, 52 Years Old
English actress Patsy Kensit is a singer, model, and former child star who appeared in many movies during the ’80s, including a memorable role as Martin Riggs (Mel Gibsons) girlfriend in Lethal Weapon 2. This All-American beauty is something of a heart-stopper, and we are struggling to tell the difference between her ages in this then-and-now comparison. She has taken longevity to another level. Kensit is a classic American beauty with a ton of heart and personality.
Patsy Kensit
George Clooney, 59 Years Old
One of our all-time favorite Bruce Waynes this 1997 Batman version is no other than gorgeous George who was also named as the sexiest man alive of the year. coincidence? we think not… being Batman was just the tip of Clooney’s diverse acting career and he has brought the debonaire male hero role to another level.

This otherworldly kind of beauty is rarely seen, or so marvelously preserved.

Demi Moore, 57 Years Old
We think you may be familiar with this knockout woman, she has been absolutely killing it in Hollywood since 1981, and is still killing it today! Whether she is shaving her head in G.I. Jane or swinging on a pole in Striptease, Moore has brought her enigmatic beauty to the fore in any role that she played. She and Ashton Kutcher were an item for a while, and she clearly understands that age is just a number.
Demi Moore
Bruce Willis, 65 Years Old
This Hollywood’s vet has played various characters during his long and prospering career, but his role as detective John McClane (1988, 1990, 1995, 2007) is most definitely our favorites. Willis has starred in so many action films throughout his career that it is difficult to think of him in any other role, but he proved his dramatic acting chops in films like The Sixth Sense, where he played a child psychologist.

Mel Gibson, 64 Years Old
Gibson rose to prominence in George Miller’s action movie (1979) Mad Max and ever since he portrayed tens of characters; from action to drama and even comedy.

Mad Max has come into his prime in the most sensational way possible.

This beautiful bond girl appeared on numerous movies in the sixties. English born, she was known as a sex symbol and often played the seductive woman role, including in the James Bond Goldfinger movie along with Sean Connery.
