Lou Ferrigno – 73 years old – Still Actively Working As an Actor
From flexing biceps to turning green with rage, Lou Ferrigno’s journey began when bodybuilding glory handed him the Mr. America and Mr. Universe crowns in the early 1970s.

Fast-forward to 2025, and Lou is at it again—but this time, he’s ditching the heroics. He’s now slicing and dicing as a cannibalistic pig farmer in “The Hermit,” charming (or terrifying) fans at Pop Culture Con and relishing his horror debut.
