Celebrities You Thought Are Long Gone But They Are Still Alive & Kicking!
Dick Van Dyke – 98
Who doesn’t remember the lovable Dick Van Dyke in the famous Mary Poppins film? The multi-talented performer ruled musical films in his time with appearances in Bye Bye Birdie and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. He is widely recognized by Brits for doing the worst English accent around, but they do love him for it too! Though he danced and sung his way to become an official Disney Legend, he did face some dangers too. At 87 he was saved from his car, which moments later was engulfed in flames. We hope he did some serious thinking with regards to car accidents and bought a safer car. He can definitely afford it with a $30 million net worth!
Lee Majors – 82
From The Big Valley to The Six Million Dollar Man and The Fall Guy, it’s evident that Lee Majors is an expert at taking on successful TV shows. He’s been acting since the early ‘60s, and now that he’s in his 80s, he’s still at it!

Within 2021, Majors played on the film Narco Sub while also working on a new movie called Spring Break ’83! With all his hard work, we’re not surprised that sources estimate his net worth at around $15 million. He’s been married to Faith Noelle Cross, his fourth wife, since 2002.
Richard Chamberlain – 87

Richard Chamberlain was a teen idol from the 1960s thanks to the role he had in the series, Dr. Kildare. He also takes credit for being the first actor in Hollywood who was able to give life to the role of Jason Bourne. He has also pursued a Broadway career and appeared in productions like Scrooge: The Musical, Spamalot, and The Heiress. Chamberlain has been openly gay since 2003 and currently has a net worth of $20 million.
BILLY DEE WILLIAMS – 84
In show business, you don’t get anything without talent and hard work. But it’s fair to say that Billy Dee Williams hit the mother lode when he was cast to play Lando Calrissian in the hugely popular Star Wars film series. The sci-fi franchise keeps Williams active today: in the last five years alone, he’s appeared in a Star Wars movie, a Lego Star Wars TV series, and two Star Wars-inspired video games!


Next year, Williams will appear in another animation show, and yes, it’s also part of the Star Wars franchise… Still making the big bucks at 84, Williams has a net worth of $9 million.
Paul Hogan – 84
In July 2021, Paul Hogan sadly had to say goodbye forever to his Crocodile Dundee collaborator, John Cornell, who passed away after 20 years of having Parkinson’s disease. Hogan himself is now 81 years old but was still able to take part in the 2020 movie The Very Excellent Mr. Dundee.
The Aussie star has already earned a Best Actor Golden Globe for playing the iconic outback adventurer Michael “Crocodile” Dundee in the Crocodile Dundee film of 1986, the first from the franchise. Hogan endeared audiences with his earnest, amiable, and down-to-earth personality, showcased in the movie series.
GEORGE HAMILTON – 84
You may know him for his hunky looks, for his legendary tan, or maybe for one or two of his impressive 123 acting appearances. Either way, you’ll probably find it amazing that George Hamilton is still active and looking good at the advanced age of 82. Known for The Godfather Part III, Zorro, The Gay Blade, Doc Hollywood, and many others, Hamilton even has a new project lined up for 2022.

Next year, this tireless film/TV icon will appear in the action flick All Terrain. It’ll be his first performance since 2019, the year he appeared in the American Housewife sitcom, portraying the character of Spencer Blitz.

Eva Marie Saint – 99
Eva Marie Saint’s career has been an incredible journey. She has been in the business for 7 decades, achieving success after success and creating a $20 million fortune. Saint started out in television and quickly moved to big leading roles starring opposite Marlon Brando in On The Waterfront.

Though Hitchcock’s North By Northwest launched her into huge fame, she always remained humble. The actress always chose roles because she found them interesting, rather than focusing on money. She also never needed any divorce attorneys, as she was married to her husband for 65 years. What a true romance!
June Lockhart – 98

June Lockhart is another American actress who was very big in the ‘50s and ‘60s. Her most famous performances are in television series Lassie and Lost in Space. She has also appeared on Broadway, winning a Tony Award for her performance. Lockhart’s talents were recognized with not one, but two stars on the famous Hollywood Boulevard. Sadly, she did need a divorce attorney twice in her life, but she still has a net worth of $10 million. She keeps herself busy with interesting projects, like video games and guest appearances.
Kim Novak – 91
Kim Novak had a great career in Hollywood. The actress started working for Columbia Pictures in 1954 and appeared in films with many huge names of the era. She may be most famous for her work in Hitchcock’s Vertigo but performed in many other films too. Novak took a break from acting to focus on her visual art and her ranch.

She sadly fell during horse riding and hurt herself pretty badly, hopefully leading to her being more cautious in case anything like that happened again. After recovering, she continued working on her art and poetry in the quiet atmosphere of her own home, enjoying her $15 million fortune.
Elisabeth Shue – 57
From Karate Kid to Back to the Future II and III, in the ’80s, Elisabeth Shue was always someone’s on-screen girlfriend. But being a daring and versatile actress, she did what it took to break that mold. So she decided to play someone’s escort lover in the film Leaving Las Vegas.

The role earned her a Golden Globe and Oscar nomination, and she also started earning more complex roles in films like The Saint and Hollow Man. She has also managed to maintain her youth, and while she doesn’t share any tips and secrets, she has been flaunting it in films like The Boys and Greyhound with Tom Hanks.

The secret behind her timeless beauty is tons of exercise including weightlifting & walking.
