Does this guy age? I can't tell it if he does....
I also think he exhibits an easy charm in this..easily the best part of the film. Great chemistry with the kid's too.

Funny that he was portraying a stage 3 brain cancer patient with a tropical tan, a full head of hair and six-pack abs.

It's unlikely he was being treated - either because it was pointless, or he declined.

I know you "can't" drink while on chemo - at least of the type that would probably have been required in his case - but I don't know what happens if you do.

He's a vampire. I've found plenty of them in hollywood. Kerry Russel is one, I used to think that Shane West was one, but he has FINALLY started aging again. Haha. No, I don't really believe that but that's what I call all the actors that never age. Dear God, those genes....and some surgeries but I'm going to give them all the benefit of the doubt and shout good vampire genes.

I wonder if theyll read this & say that awkward moment when I wasted my life readin a signature. :\

I can't speak for those others, but the truth is that Ryan Phillippe has always looked much younger than his actual age. In his early career that was his meal ticket since he usually played young teens while he was in fact of legal age. Nowadays he must take very good care of himself to maintain the gap. Luck, care, and good genes.

It's not what a movie is about, it's how it is about it.

The main reason I want to stay alive is to see if Jared Leto and Ryan Phillipe will ever age.
