Life has not been kind to the majority of us. We may remember these celebrities from when they first appeared on television, but they have also faced difficulties in their lives. We will all have to face aging, no matter how much we try to prevent it. As a result, we may not be as attractive as we once were. Beauty, as they say, is in the eye of the beholder. Despite their changing appearances, many of these stars continue to have successful careers in show business. It demonstrates that your talent is unaffected by age. Here are some elderly actors who are practically unrecognizable, ranging from Val Kilmer to Johnny Depp!

Val Kilmer began his career on the theater before transitioning to acting. He made his television debut in an ABC Afterschool Special in 1983, featuring a young Michelle Pfeiffer. By the end of the decade, he’d co-starred in Top Gun with Tom Cruise, and by the mid-1990s, Val Kilmer was considered serious hot money. He famously beat out INXS’ Michael Hutchence for the role of Jim Morrison in Oliver Stone’s blockbuster film about The Doors. Heat, in which he co-starred with De Niro and Pacino, is largely regarded as his best performance.

Although some have claimed that Val’s waistline has reduced over the years, we believe he still looks amazing for his age. Regrettably, he has vanished from both the big and small screens. After years of gaining weight, he stunned viewers with a rapid weight drop, claiming on Twitter to be down to 165 pounds. Val’s professional career has come to an end. In truth, he’s been performing Citizen Twain, a one-man show written and performed entirely by him. He received a Grammy Award for his spoken word work in 2012. Rumors of a Top Gun sequel may also motivate you to get in shape. Val, you look fantastic!
