Well Christopher Lee is now 85 and still going strong (and long may he continue - he reads Children of Hurin for the audiobook).

Age is only a concern to actresses really, who are chosen more for looks than talent unless they have the luck to be Judi Dench (who I hasten to add, is not bad for her age in looks too ). For actors, age doesn't matter.
