About this site

How Old Were They?! answers one question, thoroughly: how old was everyone, in everything? Every actor, every movie and TV show, and exactly how old they were when it was released — plus daily quizzes to test how well you really know it.

Data & images

This product uses the TMDB API but is not endorsed or certified by TMDB. Film metadata, posters, and photography are supplied by TMDB and its community; ages are computed by us from birthdates and release dates on record. Corrections are best made at the source — fix it on TMDB and this site will pick it up automatically.

Accuracy note: an "age at release" is calculated against a title's primary release date. Regional release dates can differ; where a birthday is missing or disputed, the age is shown as unknown rather than guessed.

Links

Outbound links to IMDb, Letterboxd, and TMDB are provided for convenience; those sites are unaffiliated with us.
