He (his character) turned 50 in the first Lethal Weapon movie. Damn, the studio really didn't sugar coat the whole looking old thing for him. At any rate, I'm 40 now, and I've been too old for this shit since at least 36. So, its relatable regardless.
I'm 43 and I am absolutely too old for this shit. I wish I could go back to the times where people died before they ever hit 40. LOL I'm unwilling to live the rest of my life under current conditions, and I have exhausted everything I can do to improve my situation. I'm going to start saying I'm suicidal this way. It sounds much more palatable.
Danny Glover was 41 but he was playing a character who just turned 50 and is contemplating retiring from the police force. It wasn't Danny Glover saying he's too old for this shit, it was Roger Murtaugh.
Yeah I mean he's the age that athletes stop playing sports doing a job he'd probably been doing for 20 straight years that involves running people down and having to maintain a level of fitness as well as low pay and very narrow paths for advancement.
I'd be tired as a 41 year old detective, too. That seems like it lines up.
1) Just looked this up. Archie Bunker (and, presumably Edith) were supposed to be around 46 or 47 at the start of All in the Family. They easily looked 65.
2) Terry Bradshaw, rockin’ his bald head on the sidelines in his mid-30s

I'll be 44 in 4 days. They would have to shave part of my head and dye my beard to make me look like Murtaugh. Why does he look 60?

Danny Glover himself was 41 when the movie was released. So it’s accurate, but for the wrong reason

People age better now. Two other examples:

2) Terry Bradshaw, rockin’ his bald head on the sidelines in his mid-30s

He was 41, but the character was supposed to be 50. They grayed up his hair a bit to make it look more realistic.
