Charasmatic Actors/Actresses

[4inziksych]

Hi, I'm working on a project and need to know some very charismatic actors/actresses who would be around 55-65 years old now. THey can be either very famous or not so famous. I tried to look the list on IMDB but it's sooooooo long and I never heard of most of those people.

So who are your favorites - or even who do you hate (sometimes that takes charisma too)? Thanks for any help!

DeNiro
Pacino
Nicholson
Day-Lewis
Eastwood
Clooney
Penn
Hoffman


Errr .. this is hard ? Just look at Best/Supporting Actor/Actress winners and nominees. plenty of charsima there.

I dunno; depends what is meant by 'charisma' - if it is meant to be in their work, than I would agree with your list; but if we're talking real life, I would only take Nicholson, Eastwood, Clooney and Hoffman from that list.

Aren't most actors (or at least leading men/women) charismatic? Isn't that one of the job requirements?

It doesn't seem to stop Miley Cyrus.

It's because I need a specific age - born between 1943 and 1953 (they would be, as I said 55- 65 years old). Most of your suggestions were too old or too young. I like all the actors though, thanks for trying.

Penn, Clooney, and Day-Lewis are not old enough for the 55-65 range; Nicholson, Hoffman, Pacino and Eastwood are too old. So, I guess it's a little harder than that. :)

Ah, the OP replied while I was typing.

I guess Charismatic is a relative term. I guess I'm just asking for actors that move you. Some do that better than others.

So you probably need to find list of the biggest box office draws of the 70's and 80's.

Harrison Ford?
Meryl Streep?
Tom Selleck?
Sigourney Weaver?
William Hurt?
Kevin Kline?
Glenn Close?
Kevin Costner?
Bill Murray?

Does Robert Redford fall in that age range?

Yeah this is my tactic too, but some of them are older than you would think. HF and TS are too old. Looking for some character actors also that might not spring to mind so easily.

I can't believe Dustin Hoffman is 71 already. Geez, I must be getting old too!

He's 72. Newman is 83. Holy Smoly!

Joe Pesci!

Gene Simmons

[philw1776]

Bruce Willis
Harrison Ford (may be a yr or so too old)
Edward James Olmos
Sly Stallone a.k.a. Rambo :)
Lauren Hutton

Anyone written by Aaron Sorkin? (Martin Sheen, Stockard Channing, Bradley Whitford(probably too young), Alan Alda, ...) :)

[Tyrannosullyrex]

Burt Reynolds

[cheesesteak]

Sean Connery

Denzel Washington

Ice-T and Ice Cube (I kid, I kid)

[lambertman]

Goldie Hawn's in there, right?

Sean Connery is too old. Were actors just more interesting back then or what?

But yes, I have Goldie & Kurt.

Fred Dalton Thompson (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000669/) (66 years old)

Charismatic enough to be a politician.

Shouldn't we be talking about his politcal career in the past tense? ;)
