It is very common for actors and other celebrities to look much younger than their actual age.

And not just on screen or on stage, where they often appear in makeup and always looking their best.

After all, staying in shape is one of the main requirements of their jobs - and they can afford just about any method of maintaining good looks that money can buy.

So the main problem with picking 10 celebs who are way older than they look was narrowing the list down to just ten people, which inevitably left out some worthy candidates.

Anyway, can you tell without googling how old Paul Rudd (best known for playing Scott Lang/Ant-Man) is?

Or Keanu Reeves, who just delivered another great action hero performance in John Wick 4?

How about Angela Bassett, who just received several awards last year for her supporting role in Wakanda Forever?

Vanna White, the seemingly eternal co-host of Wheel of Fortune?

Everyone can guess that they are still in the prime of their youth, but their actual ages might be surprising. For the record, as of today, Rudd is 54, Reeves is 58, Basset is 64, and White is 66!

There are other great examples of celebrities whose age you probably wouldn't guess at first glance. Christie Brinkley can still pass for a model at 69, long after her daughters have entered the modeling business.

And let's close the list with an example of an actor who actually looks quite old - just nowhere near his actual age, so much so that even fans of his current series are sometimes fooled.

Tom Selleck, once famous for playing the title character in Magnum, P.I. and now playing Commissioner Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods, is currently 78 years old.

However, some Blue Bloods fans believe that Tom is in his sixties throughout the series, just as Frank is supposed to be!
