Young cast

Do you have any idea how young most of the founding fathers were during the revolution? Marquis de Lafayette was 18 so was James Monroe. Gilbert Stuart and Aaron Burr were 20, Alexander Hamilton was 21. Betsy Ross was 24, james maddison was 25. Jefferson was 33. Adams 40. Revere was 41 and Washington 44. Andrew jackson was 9 in 1776, by 13 he was serving as a courier. Ben Franklin was 70, they do get an old guy to play him. John Adams was 40, they have a 43 year old playing him. Sam Adams was 53, they have a 30ish actor playing him. Thomas Gage was 56 and they have a guy in his late 40s playing him. John Hancock was 39 but they have a 32 year old playing him. It's really not that bad, the worst is Sam Adams, other than that, not a bad casting.
