Is anyone else as rubbish as me at guessing people’s ages? But I’ve hit the jackpot with cillian murphy.

Dh and I are binge watching Peaky blinders.
I only know himfromthe film Dunkerque where I thought he was about 20.
Googled his age last night to find out he’s 42 😱

Can’t believe I’m 22 years out.
Anyone else?

Guess how old Paul Rudd is

Lollypop27 · 11/01/2019 11:03

It’s not just you! Dh and I put him at early 20s too and when we googled we were 😱.

42? That makes him practically perfect for me then. Grin

I'm shocked he is 42 OP, I would have said mid-30's. I am useless at guessing ages, height, weight, etc., there would be no point me being a witness to a crime and trying to describe the perpetrator!

Didn't know who Paul Rudd is but looked at that picture and guessed he was two years younger than he actually is. So about right. How old did you think he was?

I remember Clueless so I'm not surprised by Paul Rudd's age but I do think he's got a portrait in his attic - he physically hasn't changed in about 25 years as far as I can see Hmm.

Paul Rudd must be about 50, as he was on Friends.

Paul Rudd in Clueless in 1995. Possibly he looked old for his age back then so that would help.

Paul Rudd just doesn't seem to age and Cillian Murphy has ridiculously smooth skin for his age. I don't think he's had 'work done' ...it's quite amazing. 😂

My friend and I are both 42 but she’s six months older than me. Cillian Murphy was born between us.
I like to remind her she’s too old for him.

Fromthat picture I would say 30

My son had a friend when he was 16...a great big rugby playing man of a teenager and i kid you not he could easily pass for 40
Now he’s nearly 40 he hasn’t aged one bit.
My son used to look like a shrimp besidehim.
Lovely lad mind and I could never beat him at scrabble

Norman Reedus in the first couple of seasons of The Walking Dead. I thought he was about 25 ? He was 42 I couldn't believe it
