is Danny the oldest action star ever?


can anyone else think of another action star who did anywhere near as much work at his age?

Or any age! Danny, my favorite Beautiful Ugly Man, seems to never stop working, God bless him. I don't know about numbers of films pending at the moment, but Frank Langella is another one who is constantly working -- if not as a supporting actor in a film, on stage somewhere -- and he's 6 years older than Danny. My heroes!

Are Stallone and Schwarzenegger still working (other than that one film, The Expendables, with all the old muscle stars)? You're dead on about Clint, who has mellowed with age, and the Duke, who probably would have gone another 10 years if he hadn't done The Conqueror (filmed in the irradiated desert near a bomb test site). An enormous percentage of the cast and crew of that film died of one kind of cancer or another. The Military, of course, told them it was safe. I'm so happy Danny wasn't around for that one.

He really doesnt look a day older than ~56 - sort of like my dad, still working (real work, though) at age 74.
