There was a time when 活動／戦闘 heroes were young and lithe and - importantly - not pensioners.

But an 分析 of 活動／戦闘 films over the last two １０年間s has 明らかにする／漏らすd a growing 傾向 for older 星／主役にするs, with the 普通の／平均（する） age of a 星／主役にする reaching 48 in the first six months of this year.

That's the same age as Vin ディーゼル, 星／主役にする of the second highest 甚だしい／１２ダースing film of 2015 so far, Furious 7.

Scroll 負かす／撃墜する for ビデオ?

But it seems he is one of the young ones: a quick ちらりと見ること at a 名簿（に載せる）／表（にあげる） of the most 心配するd 活動／戦闘 flicks of 2015 明らかにする／漏らすs more than a few familiar lined 直面するs, 明らかに 支援 up the 分析 done by writer and 生産者 Stephen Follows.

In fact, only わずかに いっそう少なく 50 to 60-year-olds have 前線d 活動／戦闘 films in the last two １０年間s than those in their 20s. Perhaps more surprising is the 発覚 more than half the 星／主役にするs were over the age of 40, long past many men's prime baddie-fighting days.??

This year, Daniel Craig - who is approaching 50 - will be one of the younger 星／主役にするs 前線ing 活動／戦闘 blockbusters when he reprises his 役割 as 社債 in the hotly-心配するd Spectre.

But Craig only made his 活動／戦闘 debut 支援する in 2001's Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, opposite Angelina Jolie.

Tom 巡航する, on the other 手渡す, is an old hat when it comes to 活動／戦闘, dipping his toe into the genre first with 1986's 最高の，を越す Gun.?

The fifth 分割払い of 使節団 Impossible - which he first 前線d in 1996, at a sprightly 34, has just より勝るd the $500million 示す globally.

And he shows no 調印するs of wanting to stop, having already 調印するd up to do MI6, 同様に as another Jack Reacher film.

But then why should he stop? He's got another 15 years in him, if Arnold?Schwarzenegger?is anything to go by.

His Terminator:?Genysis?just 甚だしい／１２ダースd?$435.9million at box offices across the world - not bad for a man who would have hung up his leather jacket in favour of 退職 at least three years ago in the real world.

Sylvester Stallone - who starred as Rocky all the way 支援する in 1976 - isn't 行方不明の out on his slice of the pie either.

He appeared in The Expe ndables 3 - which made a respectable $206,172,544 in cinemas, not bad for an 活動／戦闘 film 前線d by actors 普通の／平均（する）ing 65 - と一緒に?Schwarzenegger at 68 last year.

In 2015, as he knocks on the door of 70, he'll be reprising his 役割 as Rocky in Creed.

Harrison Ford - another Expendables 星／主役にする - has already passed the milestone birthday, however.

But that certainly has not stopped him, and the 73-year-old will reprise his 役割 as Han 単独の in this year's The 軍隊 Awakens, almost three １０年間s after he first appeared in 星／主役にする Wars.

But, speaking to MailOnline, film critic Tom Seymour said it wasn't やむを得ず because the audience 特に 手配中の，お尋ね者 to see the 星／主役にするs of the 70s and 80s on their 審査するs still.

'After the 後退，不況, you got a polarization of the sort of films 存在 made: either very low 予算 films, which are low 危険 投資s, or 抱擁する franchises which are 基本的に a dead cert,' he explained.

'They 控訴，上告 to our sense of familiarity: they are the cinema 同等（の） of a burger and 半導体素子s - you know what to 推定する／予想する, and it's 慰安ing.

'Casting recognisable 星／主役にするs is an important part of that 申し込む／申し出ing. Look at the new Transporter film, without Statham.

'Before, they were more willing to put new actors in big films, now they are 危険 逆の. Losing $200million on an 活動／戦闘 film can （一定の）期間 the end for a studio.'?
