MovieChat Forums > Mel Gibson Discussion > Starting to show his age.

Nah, that beard was too much. The look he has going now suits him for 67. No more dying his hair. Silver Fox with beard—distinguished and cool….kinda how Connery aged.
(Although NOBODY ages quite as well as Connery did!)

ikr.. he had an incredible look in his later years - bearded and bald if supporting role (Untouchables/Indiana Jones) or wig if the leading man (Hunt For Red October/The Rock). just so different to his Bond look of the 60s which he redid for the 80s Never Say Never (last time he appeared with the clean shaven 007 look) and he still had the 'sexiest man alive' heartthrob status well into his late 60s! (and starred with a young Catherine Zeta Jones in Entrapment aged 69)

Omg Sean Connery was so incredibly sexy when he got older! I found him to be even more handsome and sexy in his older years than when he was younger.

Mel Gibson still looks handsome too but I hated that big bushy beard. His short haired, silver fox look now totally suits him!

HE LOOKED BADASS IN BLOOD FATHER...THAT'S THE LOOK HE SHOULD ROCK.

This is a better photo to show his aging.

Yeah. And how those blue eyes really weren't all that swoony. Possibly he wore contacts to get the beautiful baby blue-greens.

Never noticed how long his ears were but I guess they were always that way. I think he looks great. Got a bit of a double chin now. But his crazy man beard makes him look nuts. When my pops was 65 he looked like the 6 Flags guy.

ears start to get bigger with age.

If Snopes is claiming that's a real picture of him then it's probably fake.
