Elisabeth Shue, 56, Born In 1963 – The Karate Kid

There aren’t many people out there that have managed to preserve their acting careers over the years. That’s not the case for Elisabeth Shue, however, as she’s gone from playing to The Karate Kid and Back to the Future, to 2020’s Greyhound film and On the Verge series.

Elisabeth was born in Delaware back in 1963. Today she is 56 years old and a mother of three, but most of all, she’s a successful actress. Elisabeth’s been married to Davis Guggenheim since 1994. By now, she has earned herself a $12.5-million fortune with which to get by!

Melissa Sue Anderson, 57, Born In 1962, Little House on the Prairie

Melissa Sue Anderson is better known by her character’s name. You must know her by Mary Ingalls from hit drama series Little House on the Prairie that aired on NBC network from 1974 till 1981.

After that, Melissa became an instant icon and through the years she got herself roles in various horror/science fiction projects. While the actress still has the scope in Hollywood, she occasionally appears on TV and she has taken the duties of a stay-at-home mother.

Sharon Stone, 63, Born In 1958

Two amazing things happened to Sharon Stone in March 2021. She first celebrated her 63rd birthday, and then she released her memoir titled The Beauty of Living Twice. The Oscar-nominated star began writing the autobiography after her near-fatal stroke in 2001.

Stone has gone a long way since she debuted on the silver screen through Woody Allen’s Stardust Memories in 1980. Although she became a controversial name because of Basic Instinct, the Sliver actress broke away from that image by winning herself a Primetime Emmy Award and a Golden Globe Award.

Kim Basinger, 67, Born In 1953

Kim Basinger is famous for being involved in both the acting and modeling industry. She won herself a Golden Globe and an Academy Award for starring in L.A. Confidential. At 60, she also bagged a contract with IMG Models. Basinger is Alec Baldwin’s ex-wife and the mother of their daughter, Ireland Baldwin.

The now 67-year-old celeb, who became a Bond girl in 1983, mostly keeps herself away from the spotlight. She’s also been busy with her animal protection advocacy. According to CNN, Basinger even went to South Korea to protest the dog meat industry in a 2019 event. She’s currently doing voice work for Back Home Again.

Daryl Hannah, 59, Born In 1960 – The Fury

Daryl Hannah rose to prominence after appearing in her first film The Fury and later on had a successful career starring in the famous Blade Runner franchise. Her other blockbuster films included, Kill Bill and Summer Lovers to name a few. She married Neil Young in 2018, while she is an environmental activist and a vegan, which probably explains her healthy state at such an age.
