Some months ago, the popular FaceApp became a big topic of conversation online and indeed in real life when a certain gender swap filter went live.
Users wasted no time in running their own photos through the app to see what they would look like as the opposite gender, before sharing the results with pretty much everyone they knew.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: FaceApp]]
But the app also allows users to see what they would like as a senior citizen. As with the gender swap feature, plenty of people were intrigued to find out once and for all what the future had in store for them in terms of their physical appearance.
It was only a matter of time before the filter started being applied to images of celebrities. But few have garnered as much interest and fascination as Paul Rudd's transformation.
And here it is in all its geriatric glory:
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Paul Rudd]]
This transformation, courtesy of FaceApp, is particularly interesting given a certain reputation the Role Models actor has had throughout his career.
If you're at all aware of the 50-year-old actor, you should know that he has a tendency to, well, not age. Yep, after about 30 years in Hollywood, he really doesn't look much different now than he did as an up-and-coming actor.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty]]
I mean, ever since I first saw him on screen in Clueless to when I last saw him more recently in Ant-Man, I've always thought that - like pretty much everyone else - he looks as young and fresh-faced as ever.
But now, with the power of technology, we finally know what Rudd would like if he actually aged.
Who knows how accurate the filter is? I guess we'll just have to wait a few more decades to see if it's anywhere near the mark - provided he does actually start to age.
Paul Rudd has been in the acting game since 1992, when he was 23 years old. In the years that followed, he acquired fame through his appearance in films like Clueless, Romeo + Juliet, and The Cider House Rules, before cementing his place in the Hollywood comedy hall of fame with his appearances in the likes of Anchorman, Friends, The 40-Year-Old Virgin, and Knocked Up.
Now he's playing a superhero in the Ant-Man series, so it looks like he's all set, but the topic of conversation when he turned up at the Oscars on Sunday was how he looked. Despite the fact he's been on our screens since the mid '90s, it's hard to believe that Paul Rudd is nearing 50 - because 49-year-old Paul Rudd looks practically the same as fresh-faced mid-20s Paul Rudd.
For this year's Academy Awards, the actor turned up at Los Angeles' Dolby Theatre to present the award for Best Visual Effects alongside Sarah Paulson (who also looked incredible that evening).
The award went to Paul Lambert, Ian Hunter, Tristan Myles, and J. D. Schwalm for the Neil Armstrong biopic First Man, but a huge takeaway for viewers was how eternally youthful Rudd looked. As soon as he made an appearance, Twitter went insane over how young he still looks:
Unless you've been living under a rock in recent weeks, you'll know that FaceApp has taken social media by storm. But in the unlikely event that you're unfamiliar with it, let me explain: it's an app which allows users to upload photographs of themselves (or anyone else) and transform them into their elderly selves using its "old" filter.
And, as you're about to learn, these transformations are more than a little convincing. So much so that they've been done on famous faces too, and we've compiled a list of the best to give you an idea of what the who's who? of Hollywood will look like once their smooth skin has wrinkled and their hairlines receeded and greyed!
To put how good FaceApp's older filter is into context, as long as someone isn't an actual child, it can effectively make them look old - even if they're a relatively fresh-faced 23-year-old like Timothée Chalamet.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
This is so scarily real looking that it's hard not to believe someone didn't jump in a time machine and get a picture of the actor in 2069. But hey! For an old dude, he's still got a pretty rockin' hairstyle.
Another very famous fresh face that we can't get enough of these days is, of course, Ariana Grande - a woman who's proved that she's stronger than her years by continuing to slay after the tragic terrorist attack at her Manchester concert and the untimely death of her ex-boyfriend, Mac Miller.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
Here is in the future, hopefully having said 'Thank U Next' for the very last time decades ago. My only critique of this picture is the tightness of her ponytail. If you pulled back the hair of a woman who looked that age so tight, it would probably snap!
So far, the youngest person we've encountered on this list is a 23-year-old, now, brace yourselves - and your eyes - to see how dramatically FaceApp's old feature transforms someone who is just 17 years old!
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
Okay, so while she doesn't look like someone in their 70s, it's safe to say that regardless of how old the person using the FaceApp filter is, it will almost certainly make them look like they are at least in their 50s.
She's the woman no man wants to become an ex-boyfriend of - otherwise, they'll inevitably become a chart-topping hit and feel awkward about their failed relationship wherever they go. It is, of course, Taylor Swift.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
Now, I don't know about you, but she's pretty much unrecognizable now that FaceApp's worked its filtering magic. However, considering she's one of the older stars we've had so far on this list, she only looks like she's in her late 40s.
As you're about to learn, some celebs emerge from the FaceApp old filer relatively unscathed. Others? Well, once you've seen their transformations, you'll probably struggle to look at them the same way again.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
As hard as it is to believe, that picture is of Justin Bieber. One thing's for sure - the Biebz does not suit a mustache or a classic old man combover for that matter. He looks like he's a politician!
[[pagebreak]]
[post_page_title]James Charles[/post_page_title]
Age changes a lot of people for the worst. It's all part of being human and we've come to accept that even with all the plastic surgery in the world, we can't avoid wrinkles forever, but it doesn't mean we can't still be glam!
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
Case in point, James Charles. His makeup and eyebrows are still on fleek even though his skin is far from being as smooth as his current 20-year-old self's. This really does put into context how badly the app aged Bieber.
The Kardashian-Jenner clan are arguably America's most plastic family. Their penchant for plastic surgery is apparent for all to see, and it's a pretty safe bet that she will do everything she can to fight the aging process...
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
With the FaceApp, she looks like a slightly younger version of Kris Jenner. And let's face it, there's no way her breasts will droop this much. Not with her media empire. She'll simply pay to have them forever perky.
When the FaceApp feature is used on an older celebrity, the difference is minimal, and in many cases, actually bodes well for their future. Will Smith, who is 50 years old, is a great example of this.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
Even with the addition of the filer, he doesn't look *that* old. In fact, I'm pretty sure if a poll was conducted about this picture, the majority of people would say he doesn't look a day over 60 - if that.
[[pagebreak]]
[post_page_title]Shawn Mendes[/post_page_title]
Sometimes, very occasionally, people still looking as smoking in their old age as they did in their younger years, and if you want to see a great example of a future silver fox, look no further than Shawn Mendes.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
He might be a fresh-faced 20-year-old right now, but if this picture is anything to go by, he's going to be as much of a mom's wet dream as George Clooney is. Aging gracefully is a lot easier when you're this handsome.
[[pagebreak]]
[post_page_title]Camila Cabello[/post_page_title]
Sometimes when a person reaches a certain age, they need to accept that having dark hair just isn't an option any longer. However, in a few instances, older women can pull off extremely youthful hair colors.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
Clearly, one of them is Camila Cabello. Her updo here looks totally appropriate for a woman in say, her 50s or 60s. The outfit she's wearing is also a great example of age appropriate glamourousness.
[[pagebreak]]
[post_page_title]Nicki Minaj[/post_page_title]
As you're about to learn, even if a celebrity hasn't currently gone under the knife, the FaceApp's age feature can make it look like that's the case. So, Nicki, if you're reading, get botox at your peril.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
This picture of an elderly Nicki Minaj is actually painful to look at. Her face looks almost as plastic as Micheal Jackson's and that really is saying something. Seriously, this is why it's better to grow old gracefully.
One of the interesting things about the world we are living in is that people are living for longer, and as a result, attitudes towards the older generation are rapidly changing - with many working decades beyond previous retirement ages.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
So it only stands to reason that the elderly population, instead of letting themselves go as many have been encouraged to do in the not so distant past, will be just as glamorous and vibrant looking as the younger generation (with the addition of a few wrinkles).
Some old people are so cute looking that you just want to pinch their cheeks like you would do with a baby, and if the FaceApp is as accurate as it appears to be, John Legend is going to be one heck of a cutie in 20 years time.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
And let's face it, we'd all rather look like absolute curies than like John Cleese (sorry Biebz - your youth might have been kind to you, but it looks like your twilight years are going to be more than a little cruel).
After recently hitting the headlines for taking of her weave and throwing it into her audience, you can bet your bottom dollar that Cardi's hair will be as glamorous as ever for the rest of her life.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
So, realistically, all that's going to change with time is the number of wrinkles on the rapper's face. But if this picture is anything to go by, she's going to look like a pretty badass older woman too.
[[pagebreak]]
[post_page_title]Lil Nas X[/post_page_title]
When a celebrity develops a distinctive style, they tend to continue it throughout their lives. Take Elton John, for example, he's had a penchant for glamorous glasses and extravagant suits for decades.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
So, it really only stands to reason that Lil Nas X will have his signature look as an older man. And while there's no doubt he suits it now, it's safe to say that it's a style that can be rocked by older gentlemen too.
She was recently declared the world's youngest self-made billionaire thanks to her cosmetics empire, and while questions have been raised about the self-made part of this, it's clear that Kylie Jenner is rich - and getting richer by the day.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
So, just like her mom Kris, she will almost inevitably be a very glamorous old woman. Sure, people's lips naturally get thinner as they age, but with her lip kits and filler surgeon on speed dial, this won't be happening to Kylie!
[[pagebreak]]
[post_page_title]Rhinana[/post_page_title]
Another person who, if the FaceApp old filter is anything to go by, will make a seriously smokin' old person is Rhianna. Bit this best the question: will chains and whips still excite her once she's had a hip replacement?
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
If Rhianna can learn a lesson from Madonna: it's this, embrace your wrinkles. Don't go too far with botox and you'll look as smoking as ever - proving that women in their 50s and 60s can be just as sexy as those in their 20s.
Ever since she rose to worldwide fame in the mid-noughties, Katy Perry has been famed for her fashion sense. And we got a brief glimpse of what she'd look like as an older woman in the video for 'The One that Got Away'...
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
However, as I'm sure you'll agree, if you've seen the video, this is a much better representation. The only thing slightly daunting about it is the fact that she looks a little like Cruella De Vil. Lock up your puppies!
[[pagebreak]]
[post_page_title]Brendon Urie[/post_page_title]
We've known him since he was writing sins and not tragedies as a teen, and now he's given us all high, high hopes for the rest of our lives. While it's not known what he will be giving us this far down the line, I think it's safe to say he's another silver fox!
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
Doesn't he look good? I mean, not George Clooney good, but he's not old Justin Bieber bad either. And I reckon he could still rock a top hat even when he's in his 60s. Us former emo kids will be here for you, forever, Brendan!
If there wasn't a beard in this picture, I'd quite happily say that Chris Evans is a bonafide silver fox. Seriously, if your hair is going gray, you'll do yourself so many favors if you just let nature take its course.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
However, just because your hair might have greyed, it doesn't mean that you can't still look as sharp as ever. It's sometimes said that clothes maketh the man, and it clearly does for an older Chris Evans.
[[pagebreak]]
[post_page_title]Tom Holland[/post_page_title]
Another cute old man alert! I repeat: another cute old man alert! While being a cute older person isn't as good as being a sexy one, you can't win in the looks department your entire life - and it's better to be cute than cranky looking!
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
Tom Holland's pretty cute as a 23-year-old, and it looks like this is something he's going to be all through his life. But hey! Maybe if he gets ripped, he can have a sexy middle-aged phase!
[[pagebreak]]
[post_page_title]Drake[/post_page_title]
This one will probably come as no surprise to people reading this article, but Drake is a total silver fox. Obviously. He looks so good as an older man that he'll probably be getting hired for modeling jobs left, right and center.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
Clearly, Drake fans have a lot to look forward to in the immediate and the distant future. I wonder what kind of music he'll be making then? I guess we'll just have to wait and see!
When someone is a child star, it can be almost impossible to think of them as a grownup. Just look at Macaulay Culkin. He's been haunted by his role as trickster Kevin McCallister for decades.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
But if Millie Bobby Brown isn't swallowed up by the child star trap, it looks like she's goingt to be a pretty sick and fashionable middle aged woman. That smile though! No wonder Stranger Things is so popular.
[[pagebreak]]
[post_page_title]Cole Sprouse[/post_page_title]
From Disney to dapper older gentlemen. Yeah, as much as it will make every millennial feel old, one day, the original set of Disney Channel stars will be middle-aged - and likely haunted by people still bringing up the roles that made them famous!
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
This older version of Cole Sprouse is still pretty handsome. And it's nice to see that he still has a full head of hair. A former Disney star that's bald, which will inevitably happen, isn't something the world is ready for.
He's arguably the most badass man on the planet right now thanks to his starring role as John Wick, and if FaceApp's age prediction gets it right, he's going to be a pretty badass looking dude down the line too.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
Sure, his beard might have greyed a little, his hairline reeded, but it's more than likely that Keeves will still be one of Hollywood's most beloved and humble stars in 2029. Here's to Keanu's continued reign of awesome!
Famed for not only her talent but her troubles, Demi Lovato's life so far has been as up and down as a rollercoaster, and while it's often said that what you do in your youth will affect your looks down the line, she still looks great!
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
Sobriety is a good look on you, Demi! She's clearly got a face that, providing FaceApp isn't massively duping us all, will age rather well - providing she heeds the mistakes of those who've gone before her and doesn't go to town on the botox!
[[pagebreak]]
[post_page_title]JoJo Siwa[/post_page_title]
In much the same way as I'm excited to see the kind of outfits that Lady Gaga will rock later in life, I'm also excited to see what JoJo Siwa will wear. She's going to be the most glamorous middle-aged woman pop has ever seen!
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
Although, given that she's only 16 years old, if she's anythig like Miley Cyrus, her style is going to go through more than a few changes as she grows up! There is, after all, a world of a difference between 2013 Miley and 2019 Miley.
His place in the history books was cemented when he became the first black president of the US in 2008. Since then, Obama has retired from politics but still kept a relatively high public profile.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
One of the things that he has been doing is giving speeches a plenty, and this will likely increase in the runup to the 2020 celection when a democratic candidate is chosen, and, if we are honest, continue for the rest of Obama's life.
[[pagebreak]]
[post_page_title]Beyoncé[/post_page_title]
She's widely regarded as one of the most beautiful women in the world, and that's never going to change even as she ages. But that doesn't mean we are any less curious about what Beyoncé will look like as an older woman!
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
As gorgeous as ever! Personally, I think she bears a slight resemblance to Michelle Obama. And given the fact that she's known for keeping it real, I fully expect Queen B to have minimal, if any, plastic surgery.
Britney's had her fair share of struggles in life, and it looks like even FaceApp could sense them. But hey! At least she has hair as an older woman and looks happy. She's overcome a lot of demons and we all just want to see her living her best life.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
Although, a word to the wise Britney, if you do end up aging like that, you might want to cover up a little. Older women can be sexy sure, but saggy bits don't go down well on social media - something Madonna has learned the hard way.
[[pagebreak]]
[post_page_title]Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson[/post_page_title]
When you're famed for your impressive size and physique, it only stands to reason that even as an older person, you'll still look like a force to be reckoned with, and nowhere is that more apparent than the Rock's transformation.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
His neck might have sunk a little, his muscles not as full as they used to be, but the Rock still doesn't look like a man anyone with two brain cells to rub together would mess with. Thankfully, he also looks as friendly as ever too!
I don't know why, but the X Factor prodigy has always made me think of the Rolling Stones, and just like the 'Paint it Black' hitmakers, it looks like he's going to be a pretty badass yet stylish older man.
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Getty Images / FaceApp]]
The only thing I'll add is that, fortunately, or unfortunately depending on your point of view, Harry does look a little more feminine because of the filter. To be honest, it's the earing. He's got the air of a glamorous grandma about him!
Fans have been left stunned after finding out Paul Rudd's real age following recent birthday celebrations.
The Hollywood star began his career in 1992 after starring as Kirby Quimby Philby in the NBC drama series Sisters before making his film debut opposite Alicia Silverstone in the cult classic, Clueless (1995).
Throughout his early career, he had supporting roles in movies such as Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers (1995), Romeo + Juliet (1996), The Object of My Affection (1998), and The Cider House Rules.
The star's career took a major turn when he played the role of Scott Lang in Marvel’s Ant-Man (2015) and its sequel, Ant-Man and the Wasp (2018). He reprised the role for battle scenes in Captain America: Civil War (2016) and Avengers: Endgame (2019), which became the highest-grossing superhero movie in history.

The actor is known for his seemingly ageless appearance.
During a Clueless reunion in 2019, Rudd was asked why he still looks as young as he did when the movie came out and he responded: "I’m 80 years old on the inside. In here, pure darkness - and a little moisturizer."
In 2021, during Ghostbusters: Afterlife promotions, he offered a similar answer about his youthful appearance, stating: "This is all done with smoke and mirrors. I’m a hologram," and during a 2022 interview, he revealed that he wears sunscreen because "I don't want to get skin cancer."
In addition to this, The 40-year-old Virgin actor told Men’s Health in 2023 that sleep is the most important thing that’s keeping him rejuvenated. "Sleep. Then diet. Then weights. Then cardio. The most important part of training is sleep," he added.

Despite the actor's openness about what's causing his eternal youth, fans believe something more ominous is at play - especially as he turned 55 on Saturday (April 6).
One user on X (formerly Twiter) joked: "Why are we even celebrating Paul Rudd’s birthday? Do vampires celebrate birthdays? If you don’t age…what’s the point."
Another shared a similar sentiment, writing: "Happy birthday to the aging vampire #PaulRudd Dude never age!"
A third remarked: "Ok I’m now fully subscribed to the Paul Rudd is a vampire theory - like HE JUST DOESN’T AGE. Who ya gonna call? Gh… Buffy the Vampire Slayer?"
One user wished Rudd a happy birthday and shared a hilarious clip of Ryan Gosling talking about the Marvel star "aging backward" during an appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon in 2021.
"He’s aging backward because of his contract with Satan," he said of the 55-year-old at the time. "Or he only drinks breast milk from a blue whale or something. I heard he does something weird - and I want in."

FaceApp's "old" filter has taken the world of apps by storm. Now, with nothing more than a few clicks, you can turn yourself, a loved one, or a celeb into their older selves - with some truly jaw-dropping results.
However, how accurate can an app be when it comes to predicting the future? Well, we've put it to the test. Putting in photographs of older celebs as young people and comparing them to what they look like now. The results are shockingly accurate a testament to the fact there's some impressive technology behind Faceapp!
[post_page_title]Morgan Freeman[/post_page_title]
He's the man many people would happily listen to read the dictionary and has been a staple of the entertainment world for decades. What's your favorite performance? For me, it's his role as Red in The Shawshank Redemption.
[caption id="attachment_1138" align="aligncenter" width="1420"]

As hard as it might be to believe, the picture on the left is actually a FaceApp transformation of Freeman as a young man, and on the right is what he actually looks like as an older one. Talk about accurate!
[post_page_title]Queen Elizabeth II[/post_page_title]
When you're born into the Royal Family, especially the British one, your every move is documented - from the day you make your grand entrance into the world until the day you make your equally grand exit.
[caption id="attachment_1139" align="aligncenter" width="1420"]
Credit: FaceApp / Getty[/caption]
So, needless to say, there were a lot of pictures of Queen Elisabeth for FaceApp users to chose from. And, once again, the app's ability to predict what the looks like as a mature lady is truly impressive.
[post_page_title]Dick Van Dyke[/post_page_title]
But, as any avid user of tech will tell you, it's not always completely reliable and one actor who's FaceApp transformation isn't quite so accurate is the legendary star of stage and screen Dick Van Dyke.
[caption id="attachment_1140" align="aligncenter" width="1420"]
Credit: FaceApp / Getty[/caption]
FaceApp predicted that he'd have seriously salt and pepper hair - and that his skin would be a lot darker than it turned out to be in his old age. It also gave him a fair few extra wrinkles too.
[post_page_title]James Earl Jones[/post_page_title]
A lot of factors affect how a person will age, which means that even the most advanced technology will never be able to predict it completely accurately. Take lifestyle, for example. A good and healthy one can keep a person looking younger.
[caption id="attachment_1141" align="aligncenter" width="1420"]
Credit: FaceApp / Getty[/caption]
Clearly, FacApp had no idea that Jones' healthy lifestyle would help him stay looking great for longer! Not only is he less wrinkly than the app predicted, but he's also a lot more vibrant looking too.
[post_page_title]Cecily Tyson[/post_page_title]
FaceApp's transformations are sometimes limited because they don't account for trends like thick eyebrows and lips, which, in the not so distant past, would have been unthinkable on a more mature person.
[caption id="attachment_1142" align="aligncenter" width="1420"]
Credit: FaceApp / Getty[/caption]
But there's no doubt that the app was right in its prediction that Tyson would look great as an older woman, and in terms of foreshadowing the limited number of lines on her face, it really was spot on.
[post_page_title]Maggie Smith[/post_page_title]
We live in a world where it's easier than ever to try and stop the aging process, but there is a lot of truth in the old saying that you should grow old gracefully, and Maggie Smith is proof.
[caption id="attachment_1143" align="aligncenter" width="1420"]
Credit: FaceApp / Getty[/caption]
While the real older Maggie and FaceApp's interpretation aren't exactly similar, I think we can all agree that they both look like pretty swish older women - and I'm sure the real Maggie would approve of the app predicting she'd still be that committed to her hair!
[post_page_title]Sidney Poitier[/post_page_title]
If these celebrity aging transformations are anything to go by, it's safe to suggest that FaceApp is better at predicting what men will look at in their more mature years than women. Case in point...
[caption id="attachment_1144" align="alignnone" width="1420"]
Credit: FaceApp / Getty[/caption]
This is surprisingly accurate. The only thing the app got a little wrong was how greyed his hair would be. But hey! No one, not even AI, is perfect.
[post_page_title]Clint Eastwood[/post_page_title]
Okay, I take back what I said about FaceApp being more accurate with its predictions for men. The app obviously malfunctioned when it came to predicting what Clint Eastwood would look like later in life.
[caption id="attachment_1147" align="aligncenter" width="1420"]
Credit: FaceApp / Getty[/caption]
I can't think of anything the app actually got right when it came to poor old Clint. In fact, if you didn't know better, you'd think that you were looking at two completely different older men!
[post_page_title]Angela Lansbury[/post_page_title]
When you get older, it's almost expected that you will let yourself go in one way or another, but Angela Lansbury is a testament to the fact that you can stay as glamorous as you were in your youth.
[caption id="attachment_1148" align="aligncenter" width="1420"]
Credit: FaceApp / Getty[/caption]
And this was something which FaceApp amazingly managed to pick up on! While it didn't quite get her hair right, it nailed what her eyebrows, wrinkles, and smile would all look like as a mature lady.
[post_page_title]Bettie White[/post_page_title]
This is another fantastic example of FaceApp doing a jaw-dropping job. Bettie White is a bona fide living legend and she looks as fabulous in her 90s as she did as a young woman - proof that true beauty has no expiry date.
[caption id="attachment_1150" align="aligncenter" width="1420"]
Credit: FaceApp / Getty[/caption]
FaceApp successfully predicted not only what her hair would look lie (bar color, but hey-ho), her wrinkles, eye and nose shape, and of course, that she'd still have that infectious grin decades later!
[post_page_title]Barbara Walters[/post_page_title]
SFaceApp's old filter couldn't be further off the mark when it comes to what some celebrities will look like in their old age. But some celebs just have good genes. Take Barbra Walters for example...
[caption id="attachment_1152" align="aligncenter" width="1420"]
Credit: FaceApp / Getty[/caption]
There's no denying that she looks great as an older woman, and it turns out this is entirely the result of good genes and not a surgeon's knife - although she's admitted having some botox. She said: "I have good genes. My mother had good cheekbones, so do I. My mother had good legs. The legs are the last to go."
[post_page_title]Keith Richards[/post_page_title]
In the majority of cases, FaceApp has been too harsh on celebs, but when you've lived a life as crazy as Keith Richard's (although I'm sure he doesn't regret a thing), it turns out that it was more kind than cruel.
[caption id="attachment_1153" align="aligncenter" width="1420"]

But hey! He's the most badass grandpa out there and he's still pulling moves with Jagger despite being well into his 70s. These guys will be painting it black even when they're six feet under.
[post_page_title]Dolly Parton[/post_page_title]
One of the most famously cosmetically altered celebs, second only to the likes of Michael Jackson, is, of course, the country sensation that is Dolly Parton. This is what she might have looked like had she aged naturally...
[caption id="attachment_1154" align="aligncenter" width="1420"]
Credit: FaceApp / Getty[/caption]
Wow. There's no other word for it. What do you think? Do you prefer the cosmetically altered Dolly? Or FaceApp's preduction of what her younger self would have looked like had she aged naturally?
[post_page_title]Jane Fonda[/post_page_title]
For many people, a natural part of the aging process involves their lips getting thinner, but this didn't happen to Jane Fonda, and her's retained not only their shape but their fullness.
[caption id="attachment_1156" align="aligncenter" width="1420"]
Credit: FaceApp / Getty[/caption]
Amazingly, FaceApp did get the wrinkles on her face right. The only thing it failed to predict would be that her eyes would be as big and bright as ever even as an older woman.

Ian McKellen is one of the rare actors out there who has occupied some of his most iconic roles as an older man - Gandalf is one of the many examples that come to mind, and it turns out that FaceApp's prediction for him was spot on...

Add a beard to that altered picture and boom! He could have walked straight out of Middle Earth. Ian McKellen is an icon not only in the acting and LGBTQ+ communities but the older one, again proving that age is just a number.

Second only to Queen Elizabeth II, one of the most famous living 90-odd-year-olds is David Attenborough. The documentary maker and activist has been a staple of our TVs for over half a century.

And FaceApp wasn't too far off the mark again when it came to predicting what he'd look like as an older person. I mean, that picture is in black and white, so it's not like you can say it got his hair color wrong.
[post_page_title]Dame Judi Dench[/post_page_title]
Oh dear. This is one transformation that we don't think Dench would be too pleased with. As far as FaceApp's concerned, her younger self was going to gain some weight in the future.

We think the real, mature Judy Dench looks a lot better than the app predicted. Her eyes are much more vibrant! And her hair, though white, definitely suits her more than its fuller interpretation.
[post_page_title]Arnold Schwarzenegger[/post_page_title]
From a FaceApp fail to one that's ridiculously accurate. Pictured below is the legendary actor and former governor of California and strongman, Arnold Schwarzenegger. The app didn't get his older self wrong at all!

I mean sure, the hairstyle is off, but apart from that! It's nailed the positioning of the actor's wrinkles and the fact that he never lost his hair over time.
[post_page_title]Harrison Ford[/post_page_title]
This is easily one of the best FaceApp predictions on this list. There's no doubt that Harrison Ford is an attractive older man, and this was something that FaceApp successfully predicted when it transformed a picture of his younger self.

The app has absolutely nailed how the actor's forehead wrinkled - for real. It's got the shape of his lips as an older man down to a tee, and it's completely predicted what his eyes would look like too!
[post_page_title]Prince Philip[/post_page_title]
Having lived a life of luxury, it's almost expected that members of the Royal family will live particularly long lives and Prince Philip, who is currently 98 years old, is a testament to this fact.

This is another example of FaceApp being particularly spot on with its prediction. Most people are six feet under at his age, but he's still going relatively strong and is smiling to boot!

Fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and comedy have seen Paul Rudd across their screen for decades now, but if you look real close (real, real close) you may notice something's up.
While most of the people reading this will know the 49 year-old actor for his work as the super fit Ant-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, or even as Phoebe's piano-playing husband in Friends, Rudd has been around in the industry for more than 20 years. Ask your parents about some mid-90's movies called Romeo+Juliet and Clueless.
We're not sure whether to be worried for him or to celebrate on his behalf. In short, the man just refuses to age. If anything, he seems to be ageing in reverse.
Looking great as you get older is all often about paying attention to the details and being consistent. Routines such as applying moisturiser daily, constant grooming, and age-appropriate dressing all have a cumulative effect that becomes more and more apparent over time.
And while there are several skin-care measures and grooming hacks that you can employ to chase the Rudd-effect, Paul puts it down to diet, nutrition, and avoiding alcohol.
“I basically didn’t eat anything for about a year,” Rudd semi-joked to Variety when talking about gearing up for his role in Ant-Man. “I took the Chris Pratt approach to training for an action movie. Eliminate anything fun for a year and then you can play a hero.”
The Ant-Man star also told People he did away with alcohol for an entire year, focusing instead on a no-carb diet and a 24/7 dedication to fitness. “My day was centered around fitness and health, and that was kind of a first,” he said.
“Every other time, I had to go about my day and try and find the time to work out. But (this time) everything else about my day kind of had to fit in around the workouts. I was going to be held accountable for it, and there was a reason for doing it. I wasn’t just randomly doing this kind of arbitrarily, which would have made it a lot harder.”
Trying this for a week or even a month might not get you in superhero shape, but it sounds like it will set you on the right track. Who knows, you may even end up with your own fan-made Twitter account dedicated to your abs like Rudd.
Rudd incorporated a ton of gymnastics-centered workouts and strength-training into his routine, which he says was the most he had consistently worked out in his life. Talking to Bon Appetit about the first Ant-Man, Rudd gave the journalist a toned down version of his day to day eating schedule. I imagine a similar routine was followed for the second instalment.
The journalist had a small bowl of oatmeal for breakfast and some sort of protein, like hard-boiled eggs. He has a protein shake later in the morning and again after lunch, made with banana, almond butter, almond milk and ice.
His mid-day meal and dinner are usually pretty similar and often consist of a salad with grilled chicken, cranberries, and an oil and vinegar dressing. Doing so lost him 12 pounds, so the results are there to be lapped up. Sticking to the plan, though, is a whole other ball game. One you will almost definitely need superhero will for.
