These Hollywood Legends Are Still Alive And Winning Life

Patrick Stewart – England, 84

“Legendary” doesn’t even begin to describe the incredible things Patrick Stewart has done in the acting industry. We honestly can’t find the right words for this man who has dedicated over six decades of his life starring in several stage productions and movies and has received various awards and nominations to that effect.

From portraying several Shakespeare characters to starring in the popular franchise ‘Star Trek,’ Stewart has seen it all and done it all. It’s even more interesting that as he gets older, the actor is still very active and is even ready to take on more daring roles. This is one reason we’ll settle for “powerhouse” as a perfect description.

Anthony Hopkins – Port Talbot, 87

In the sixty plus years of his incredible career, Sir Anthony Hopkins has repeatedly proven what a powerhouse of natural talent he is. Pick any movie or stage production from his lengthy list of acting credits and you will soon feel his brilliance as a consummate performer.

From his 1991 ‘Academy Award’ winning performance as Hannibal Lector in ‘The Silence of the Lambs’ to the most recent ‘Oscar’ winner ‘The Father’ in 2020, Anthony has consistently chosen difficult roles and turned them into masterpieces on-screen. He’s now more selective about his acting projects and prefers to spend time with his cat or break out into impromptu dances in his living room.

Hugh Grant – London, 64

Hugh Grant is a heaven-sent for everyone who’s into watching romantic comedies. His movies ‘Notting Hill,’ ‘Two Weeks Notice,’ and ‘Four Weddings and a Funeral’ almost always make it to several ‘all time favorite films’ list. For a man who considers himself to be a reluctant actor, he has done outstandingly well in the industry.

Despite being in the limelight, Hugh is well-known for being reticent in sharing his personal life with the media. He still continues to shy away from the spotlight but allows his amazing acting skills to speak for itself. In 2020, the multi-award winning star’s performance in the miniseries ‘The Undoing’ got him rave reviews.

Jacqueline Bisset – Surrey, 80

Jacqueline Bisset is as stunningly beautiful today as she was during her debut in 1965. Can you believe that in the earlier years of her acting career she was typecast as being too pretty? It was her amazing performance in ‘The Sweet Ride’ in 1968 that got her noticed and also won the aspiring actress a ‘Golden Globe’ nomination.

She’s a star who has aged gracefully and the number hasn’t stopped her in the least from following her passion for acting. In 2021, Jacqueline featured in the movie ‘Birds of Paradise’ and was praised for her brilliant performance as the stern Madame Brunelle. We cannot wait to see her continue to grace our screens with her amazing presence.

Jeremy Irons – Isle of Wight, 76

His magnetic on-screen presence is unparalleled in the world of cinema. He’s none other than Jeremy Irons, who has blessed us with intense performances in movies like ‘The French Lieutenant’s Woman’ and ‘Reversal of Fortune,’ for which he won an ‘Academy Award’ in 1990.

Jeremy made his debut as an actor on stage in 1969 and continued to perform in ‘West End Productions’ for a while doing Shakespearean plays like ‘Macbeth.’ He even won a ‘Tony Award’ for his Broadway debut in 1984 winning accolades for his impeccable portrayals. Even after spending over five decades in this profession, his passion for the craft hasn’t dimmed. In 2022, we were thrilled to see him in ‘House of Gucci.’
