Richard Chamberlain | Born in 1934, Dr. Kildare

Richard Chamberlain has a career spanning over seven decades, and despite his age, he is still continuing his acting career. He started acting in the ’50s and quickly rose to the top for his heartthrob image. His good looks helped him find fans, but ultimately, his acting skills made him stay for so long.

He proved he is more than a handsome face and has won numerous awards, including a few Golden Globes. He is known for starring in projects like “Dr. Kildare,” “King Solomon’s Mines,” and “The Thorn Birds.” Some of his newer works include “Echoes of the Past” and “The Black Ghiandola.”

Lee Majors | Born In 1939, The Fall Guy

Beating 400 actors vying for the role of Heath Barkley in the hit TV show “The Big Valley” was the most significant Lee Majors career move. It made him into an overnight sensation in the 60s, and with his boyish good looks, a massive female following in tow.

Majors’ screen debut was an uncredited part in “Strait-Jacket,” although nothing memorable, it still opened up opportunities for minor TV appearances in the 1960s. However, by the 70s’, Majors finally hit it big with “The Six Million Dollar Man,” boosting his popularity even more. In his 80s, the legendary actor savors his celebrated career in Texas with his beautiful wife, Faith Cross.

Max Baer Jr | Born in 1937, The Beverly Hillbillies

California native Max Baer Jr. pursued many opportunities as an actor but scored a slam dunk with his role as ‘Jethro’ on the hit television series ‘The Beverley Hillbillies,’ which aired from 1962 to 1971. He found it challenging to procure further employment when the show’s run finally ended, as ‘Jethro’ was a part of him he couldn’t shake.

These days Baer keeps himself occupied with his business ‘Beverly Hills Mansions and Casinos’, building houses and entertainment venues, featuring elements from the iconic television show he helped cement as an American classic.

Sophia Loren | Born in 1934, Two Women

Here is yet another celeb in her elderly years who is very active and doing incredibly well. Dame Grand Cross OMRI, better known as Sophia Loren, is in her mid-eighties, and it seems like only a couple of years have passed since her famous portrayal of Cesira in 1984’s hit movie ‘Two Women!’ At least, that is what it feels like to us!

Dame Sophia made history as the first star to win an Oscar for a performance in a foreign language. So it only makes sense that in addition to being among the longest living stars of her times, she is also the top-ranked actress to date!

Loni Anderson | Born in 1945, Stroke Acer

Many people often compliment Loni Anderson by likening her to Hollywood icons like Jayne Mansfield and Marilyn Monroe. So it’s not shocking to find that she also played the role of Mansfield in the biopic. Apart from this, Loni appeared in numerous other big projects, including the sitcom ‘WKRP in Cincinnati.’

These days, the star enjoys most of her time with her husband, Bob Flick, spending her massive net worth. We are sure that the couple doesn’t need to worry about money for the rest of their lives. Still, we doubt Loni will join the list of retired actors anytime soon.
