20+ Hollywood Men Who Grew Even More Handsome With Age
In psychology, there’s a term, gerontophobia, which is the fear of getting old. Of course, our appearance changes over time, and in some cases, it can prove to be especially difficult for actors because their fans are used to seeing them young and fit. But as it turns out, some people only get better with age, just like a fine wine.
We at Bright Side decided to check if the passing years really did make people look worse. But on the contrary, we found that age gives some people a bit of extra charm.
1. Henry Cavill
2. Liam Neeson
3. George Clooney
4. Ralph Fiennes
5. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau
6. Ryan Gosling
7. Joaquin Phoenix
8. Tom Hardy
9. Benedict Cumberbatch
10. Viggo Mortensen
11. James McAvoy
12. Daniel Day-Lewis
13. Cillian Murphy
14. Mads Mikkelsen
15. Michael Fassbender
16. Matthew McConaughey
17. Edward Norton
18. Woody Harrelson
19. Chris Hemsworth
20. Bradley Cooper
21. Arnold Schwarzenegger
22. Colin Farrell
Do you think that these actors look good at an older age? Who would you add to our list?
Comments
Had no idea how were most of these men when they were younger
Henry!!!! ???
That's cool
Meh. Comparing a mid twenties to a mid thirties is not much time at all. I wouldn’t consider someone “older” until they’ve in their fifties or so. Difference of 10 years is just a baby to a man.
