It has long been known that Patrick Stewart, Captain Picard his own self, spent a few decades in an aging-free stasis. for example, here he is in 1981’s Excalibur,
And in 1984’s Dune:
And in 2002’s Star Trek: Nemesis (with Tom Hardy, who would inflate to play Bane a decade later):
And at an awards ceremony in January 2018:
Sure, there’s some aging, but it doesn’t really look like the better part of 40 years worth.
This could of course be due to Stewart just being special. But I happened to catch 1991’s “The Last Boy Scout” in HBO a few days ago. It stars Bruce Willis, who does look like a substantially younger version of the old feller in the recent “Death Wish.” But starring alongside Willis is Damon Wayans, who looked like this:
The past few years, Wayans has been starring in the TV series remake of “Lethal Weapon.” Much to my surprise, I gotta say that I recommend “Lethal Weapon;” it certainly beats the “remakes suck” curse that has been active the last decade or so. It’s really quite good.
And Damon Wayans looks like this:
Again, yes, some aging is visible, but not what you’d expect for nearly 30 years.
I assume Patrick Stewart is naturally bald. I don’t know about Daman Wayans; could be a fashion choice. But it seems to have worked for him.
