Steve Carrell was 43 when he bagged the lead role of Michael Scott in the US version of The Office. Others who found their acting skills were finally recognised when they got older include Star Wards legend Harrison Ford who was 31, Love Actually's Alan Rickman made it at 32 and Pulp Fiction's Samuel L Jackson was 41.
It is never too late to become an actor. I've taught actors who start at sixteen years-old as well as sixty who went on to have flourishing careers in commercial, theater, television, and film. There is no age limit or threshold to becoming an actor.
It's never too late to start acting because there is no age limit to pursuing your dreams and passions.
Let's get this out of the way: No, you are not too old to start your acting career. Whatever age you are now, there are opportunities for you to perform onstage and onscreen. But that doesn't mean they will come easily. You will have to be as prepared, if not more so, than your competition.
