RUSS TAMBLYN – 84

Russ Tamblyn is an American actor and dancer who started his career when he was still young. His screen debut was in the musical Seven Brides for Seven Brothers back in 1954. A few years later, he landed the role of Norman Page in the hit drama film Peyton Place and earned an Academy Award nomination for his performance in this show. When he was young, he trained in gymnastics, which served as an advantage when he portrayed the Jets gang leader in the hit 60’s musical The West Side Story.

He certainly deserves some credit for his performance since he was able to land multiple projects. The actor is now 80 years old and is still acting. Recently, he has been busy portraying Dr. Montague in The Haunting of Hill House. He also appeared in Quentin Tarantino’s Django Unchained and played Dr. Lawrence Jacoby in Twin Peaks. His career did have its ups and downs, but nothing can stop this legend from pursuing his craft.
