Oftentimes, actors have to play the roles of characters who are several years younger than they are. While some celebrities manage to look as if they’re teenagers at age 30 and can easily play the role of a school kid; others can’t look much different, and makeup artists aren’t always able to hide a gap of, say, 2 decades.
We at Bright Side decided to imagine what the characters of popular movies and series would look like if their age matched the age of their on-screen characters.
Which of these actors pulled off playing a younger character best?
I liked these very much! It aligns a bit more with how I, a woman in her early 30s, sees teenagers. Not exactly babies but you are correct that people my age play high schoolers. I will say though that Tom Holland looks younger than the other SM though. Maybe now teenagers look older but they did not when I was a teenager, with a couple exceptions of some of the girls that looked older in middle school. Seriously we were still kids but some of the girls were more, blessed.
I actually think Severus Snape was portrayed nicely. I would definitely see him as a man with many wrinkles - he had witnessed a lot in his life, lost his love, it definitely had to be shown with his look too
also, Rowling approved the actors too, so we could see the characters the same way she envisioned them
I think that Snape would look a little older just because of his character, personality and what he's been through.
