Find Out What Happened To Hollywood’s Golden Age Stars Who Are Still Alive And Inspiring Fans
CHRISTOPHER WALKEN – 81 YEARS OLD – BUSY AS A SOUGHT-AFTER ACTOR
There’s no other smooth-talker in Hollywood like Christopher Walken. Heck, the 78-year-old celeb is one of his generation’s best actors! His astounding acting talent is showcased in films such as The Deer Hunter, Catch Me If You Can, Annie Hall, and Pulp Fiction. If that doesn’t convince you, his seven Saturday Night Live guest-hosting stint might.
As of 2021, Walken is starring as Burt in the drama/thriller TV show Severance. Before this, he worked on Wild Mountain Thyme, a 2020 romantic film. Now, he is also set to appear in the TV series The Offenders, currently in pre-production.
MARLA GIBBS – 93 YEARS OLD – STILL A WORKING ACTRESS
With her acid-dry wit coupled with some sass and sarcasm, Marla Gibbs blew everyone away when she came onto the ’70s TV screens at the age of 44. It was then when she landed the role of Florence Johnston in the hit CBS sitcom The Jeffersons. A decade later, producers just had to give her a show with 227, playing the lead character of Mary Jenkins.
At 90 years old, we’re shocked to know that Gibbs is still actively acting. In 2021 alone, she appeared in the TV Series Big Shot and Young Sheldon. Gibbs is also part of the upcoming movie Doris HeadShop.
GEORGE HAMILTON – 85 YEARS OLD – ACTIVE IN THE ACTING INDUSTRY
Actor George Hamilton, recognized for his sophisticated style and suave hairdo, has been in the entertainment industry since the early ’50s. But if you think he’s already retired at 81, you’re mistaken. He’s even busy working on a new action film titled All Terrain, coming out in 2022.
In recent years, we’ve seen Hamilton appear in projects like Grace and Frankie, American Housewife, and Swiped. Yet, his timeless hits will always be our favorites: Light in the Piazza, Once Is Not Enough, Love at First Bite, and The Godfather Part III.
TIM MATHESON – 77 YEARS OLD – ACTIVE IN THE ACTING INDUSTRY
Eric “Otter” Stratton, the resident smooth-talker the comedy flick National Lampoon’s Animal House, has got to be the character that endeared Tim Matheson to his fans. But aside from this, he also took on other famous roles like voicing the lead character in the Jonny Quest animated series from 1964 to 1965 and playing President Ronald Reagan in Killing Reagan, a 2016 TV film.
Nowadays, the 73-year-old Matheson is still a familiar face on television. Between 2019 and 2021, he even had two hit TV projects. We’re talking about This Is Us and Virgin River.
