Actors Who Brilliantly Portrayed Characters Much Older Than Themselves

Benjamin Button / Brad Pitt

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, 2008
State-of-the-art technology was used to make Brad look old: more than 120 emotions were captured from the actor’s face and then transposed onto 3D models. As a result of this huge work, Pitt sometimes played whole scenes alone, while his doubles often stood in for him in certain scenes.
