Still Got It! Kevin Bacon at 66 Keeping the Show Going 🎬🎵
- Despite his advanced age of 66, there's no sign of him slowing down yet.
Hey there! Kevin Bacon (66) ain't ready to hang up his acting boots just yet. In a candid chat with U.S. mag "People", he confessed he's more fired up than ever before!
Refusal to Slow Down
After premiering his action-horror series "The Bondsman" on Prime Video, Bacon finds himself inundated with exciting possibilities. "I ain't feelin' no slowdown," he said at the series premiere, surprise-surprise, many of his peers his age are kicking back and enjoying retirement, but not this fella! "There are so many things I want to explore as a thespian, musician, and songwriter. Retirement ain't gonna happen anytime soon," Bacon declared.
What's next? He's still not sure, but he's always bowled over when he's offered new roles. "I never thought I'd make it this far," he chuckled.
Character Actor Vibes
Despite being a leading star for decades, Bacon sees himself more as a character actor. "I'm grateful the biz chose me to be a character actor, not a leading man. I'm cool with that, and I'm happy to play diverse roles," he admitted.
With a film career spanning over four decades, Bacon tore up the screen in iconic movies like "Animal House," "Footloose," "Apollo 13," and "Crazy, Stupid, Love." He also snagged a Golden Globe and a Screen Actors Guild Award for his role in "Taking Chance." When he ain't acting, he's got his band, The Bacon Brothers, going strong since the '90s.
