You know how wine and cheese get better with age? Well, for a lot of actors, the same is true.
But with wine, cheese, and even actors, it's all a matter of taste. So I need to know if you prefer these leading men as silver foxes or if you were more into them when they were young stallions.
And before we get started, it should be noted that all of these men are attractive no matter their age, and this is all in good fun! :) Here we go!
