12 Hollywood stars viewers have never seen young
Professor Xavier, Оленна Tyrell, Dumbledore and the other stars who prove that an actor and fame, in principle, it is never too late.
In Hollywood, a lot of freaks, from childhood played in advertising and in adolescence, turned into stars, earning millions of dollars. But there are also those who only achieved at least some of the popularity and fame in adulthood or even began acting just after celebrating their 40th anniversary. “The movie poster,” recalls the 12 actors, who the audience had never seen before, that the boys on a big screen, something on the small screen.
Patrick Stewart
Yes, Charles Xavier, Professor X from “X-Men” - almost a bright role in the career of Patrick Stewart, but there is in the list of actors the role of no less important role is the role of Captain Picard in the series “Star Trek : the next generation », thanks to which Stuart finally got to know the whole world. And there have been no less than 47 years.
Diana Rigg
Fans of the “game of thrones” know Daian Rigg as the clever and bossy Olenn Tyrell, and unfortunately hardly anyone familiar with the roles that Diana played in her youth - but as soon as this charming British actress got there, the opportunity to become one of the Bond girls.
Jean Reno
For several years Jean Reno tried to build a career in French cinema, but he did not look so good - and then the actor knocked out 46 years, and fortune was fortunate for him to be better acquainted with the director LUC. Reno shines at Besson in «Underground» and finally became famous - and then went «Leon», «Wasabi», «Blue Abyss» and other famous paintings with the participation of Reno.
Melissa McCarthy
Charming fatty, Melissa McCarthy lost weight with adolescence, but unfortunately, as it is, in a comedy role very much, and on the second-third roles actress, of course, no one does not notice. And only 41 years old Melissa finally found what she was looking for - her role in the film "Bachelorette Party in Vegas" brought her long-earned fame and roles in top-class films, from "Spy" to the new "Ghostbusters".
Morgan Freeman
Hollywood cinema today is hard to imagine without Morgan Freeman, but he was once a stage actor and had no idea of a career in film. Only 50 years Morgan made a «breakthrough» in Hollywood, starring in the film «Street Child», until this Freeman limited roles in TV series and television films.
Leslie Nielsen
Leslie Nielsen first tried her powers in the field of acting immediately after World War II, but the fame of this brilliant comedian actor came much later - only 54 years old, when Nielsen starred in the comedy "Airplane".
Brand Блетин
The mass audiences of the Bluetin brand may not be so well known, and there is a logical explanation for this: the international cinemas conquer the British actress took over only after celebrating 37 years of existence (imagine what you had to fight in the business, where to start with the role of childhood!). Of course, the success of the brand was not achieved immediately - only in 1996 through the TV series “Secrets and Lies” finally talked about it.
Charles Dance
Another representative of the popular TV series "Game of Thrones", Charles Dance today is trusted by audiences primarily as Tywin Lannister - but at the time of the first appearance in this picture Charles was now 63 years old.
Michael Gambon
Gambon successfully worked in theater and film in her native Britain, but outside it was not too well known - and became famous around the world at the end of life, thanks to the role of Dumbledore in "Harry Potter". At the time of the completion of the shooting Gambon said the 71th anniversary.
Alan Rickman
Like Michael Gambon, Alan Rickman enjoyed love and recognition in the UK, but Hollywood conquered already in adulthood - only the main role in "Die Hard" will be Bruce Willis. Today it is difficult to imagine that Rikman, when world fame collapsed, was 42 years old.
Whoopi Goldberg
Without Whoopi Goldberg Hollywood film of the 80s and 90s simply impossible to imagine, but if-then Hollywood is entirely without you - the fame came to the comedy actress only when she was older than 35 years. Almost world-famous star «Hurry up, sister!» presented the role in the film «Ghost».
Tommy Lee Jones
Another representative of the “old school”, Tommy Lee Jones conquered Hollywood again in adulthood - the world began to look at the actors after the cult painting “The Refugee”, at the time of the premiere of Tommy Lee Jones was already 47 years old. Until then, and like Morgan Freeman, Jones worked primarily in the theater.
