Jeremy Irons – Age 73

Jeremy Irons made a name for himself on the West End stages with acclaimed performances. These include parts in Shakespeare classics like “The Winter’s Tale,” “Macbeth,” “Much Ado About Nothing,” and “The Taming of the Shrew,” among others. But he came to the fore when he starred in the 1981 film “The French Lieutenant’s Woman.”

He gained leading man status, and an Oscar, for his role in “Reversal of Fortune” playing Claus von Bülow. He had roles in “The Man in the Iron Mask,” playing Aramis, “M. Butterfly,” and “Die Hard with a Vengeance.” He has also played Alfred Pennyworth in “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” and 2021’s “Zack Snyder’s Justice League.”
