bouche Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Have you seen any older movies lately, or rewatched something and recognized an actor at a much younger age whom you didn't realize was in the movie that came out many years ago? Post a picture of an actor in a current, maybe even popular, well-known role, and then post a photo from an older movie. I'll start with Adam Baldwin. Currently playing Casey in Chuck, known for his role in Firefly as Jayne and my favourite. His first role as Linderman (the bodyguard) with a young Matt Dillon (the bully), in My Bodyguard, 1980.

Hal Johnson Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 (edited) I only watched this show for the first time very recently, as it follows re-runs of the office. Never knew the three guys on the left (right in the picture) were in anything else before they started appearing in every comedy produced in the past 5 years.

Esau. Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 Christopher Walken is well-remembered for his appearances in the Stepford Wives... Don't forget the Deer Hunter!

Booche Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 That Bill paxton one is awesome, well done. I've got a double one. Eric Stoltz (currently in Caprica but you might recall him as Lance in Pulp Fiction) and Anthony Edwards (currently on ER but you probably remember him as Goose in Top Gun) in Fast Times At Ridgemont High. And of course Sean Penn.......if you didnt know that, never talk to me again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freak By Night Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 Speaking of Fast Times at Ridgemont High, you can't forget Forest Whitaker who had a minor role in that movie. Similar to Sean Penn, Whitaker moved on to meatier roles and he won awards for his work in "Bird" and "The King of Scotland". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
