Christopher Walken |78 years old

The Prophecy star Christopher Walken has no plans of retiring just yet. At 78 years old, he seems bent on still making movies instead of enjoying the fruits of his labor in his home or some other property. In an interview in 2015, the actor had already stated that he doesn’t want to retire at all. The Sleepy Hollow alum does have quite the resume with epic films – both funny and serious ones – and it seems that he will add more to that list as the years go by. Walken also did a cameo with Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis and other projects.

This included A View to a Kill, Seven Psychopaths, Man on Fire, Catch Me If You Can, and The Deer Hunter. Not only was he acting on-screen, but he also appeared in plays like Macbeth, Hamlet, and Romeo and Juliet, just to name a few. There had been rumors that he was going to say goodbye to Hollywood but it seems that they were just that, rumors. Did you know that Walken didn’t dream of being an actor? The credit goes to his mother who brought her sons with her to do TV auditions.
