Hollywood Golden Age Stars Who Are Still With US
Did you ever wonder if the actor or actress in the film you just watched is still around? How about that song that you just heard recently? Some performers don’t give it up until their last breath, but many retire to enjoy their last days in luxury after a hard lifetime’s work. Just because they’re out of the spotlight by no means suggests they’re dead! Here is a list of several stars you may have thought have kicked the bucket – but they’re alive and kicking! So no need for any lawyers or inheritance attorneys for these stars yet – have a look at those who are still going strong!
Olivia de Havilland – Age 103
Olivia de Havilland had acting talent in her genes, as the daughter of the British actress Lillian Fontaine. She famously appeared in The Adventures of Robin, Gone with the Wind and To Each His Own. Her early exposure to acting from way back in the 30s certainly paid off in volumes as Dame Olivia de Havilland is an Academy Award-winning actress. She very recently filed a lawsuit against FX Networks (over the way she was portrayed in a film), for which no lawsuit settlement was necessary as it was thrown out.
Victoria Principal – Age 69

If you have watched the soap opera Dallas, then you probably remember Victoria Principal as Pamela Barnes Ewing. The show aired from 1978 until 1991, although Victoria left the show in 1987. After that, she started her own production company called Victoria Principal Productions and created a line of skincare products. The 68-year-old is also an author who wrote three books on beauty, health, fitness, skincare, and well-being. She is also a philanthropist. When it comes to acting, the last appearance she seems to have made was on the Dallas Reunion Tv special in 2004.
Rhonda Fleming – Age 95

Rhonda Fleming wasn’t nicknamed “Queen of Technicolor” for no reason. This 94-year-old used to be one of the most glamorous Hollywood stars and one of the most beautiful ones, too. She appeared in more than forty films during the ’40s and the ’50s but she slowly withdrew from acting in 1960. Of course, she had other sources of income such as real estate investments. However, she started performing in Las Vegas in the ’60s and she also appeared in a few more projects since then. Fleming has a $10 million fortune to fall back on and she also dedicates her time to charitable causes.
Jane Powell – Age 90

Jane Powell rose to fame by appearing in many musicals in the ’40s. She was a contract player from the same company as Arlene Dahl—Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer pictures. Her notable roles include the ones in A Date with Judy, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, and Hit the Deck. By the ’50s, she rarely appeared in movies and worked mainly in theatre. Powell appeared in productions alongside some of the greatest legends including Fred Astaire and Elizabeth Taylor. After four divorces, Jane married former child star Dickie Moore and remained with him until his death in 2015.
Gene Reynolds – Age 96

Gene Reynolds’ acting career kicked off in 1934, with him seeing several roles in MGM movies. He served in World War II and returned to Hollywood to work as a director. He happened to be one of the creators behind the successful M*A*S*H. In his career, he was nominated for an Emmy 24 times! He’s been the head of the Director’s Guild for 4 years, too. Reynolds has been married to actress Ann Sweeny since 1979 and they have a son together. He has a hefty net worth of $65 million to enjoy now!
