He’s 80 yrs old?! Looks amazing

[@FacheChanteDeux]

He was so good looking when he was young.

[@aresmarte9000]

Amazing

[@LisaLisa-2023]

Chris Sarandon is a handsome man, aged gracefully, and his articulation at 80 is impressive. He is fortunate. Not to mention I really admire anyone who is able to maintain amiable friendships with their former spouses and with their former spouse's partners and children!!! Now that tells you how open-minded open-hearted and just how super COOL he is as a peaceful human being. Peace to all. :D

[@sharonhendrix7496]

Wow! He looks and acts AMAZING!💕💕💕

[@clarissagafoor5222]

Fright night is one of those movies i can watch over and over and never get tired of it. Love fright night

[@bonnie7875]

I can literally mouth the whole script when I'm watching it. And it just gets more and more nostalgic as time passes.

[@CC-dw9ch]

Agree. How about that terrible remake? why do they have change so many things? dumb.

[@patriciaarodriguez6641]

I had such a crush on him as a kid even though he was the villain in The Princess Bride. He still looks great and sounds like a nice, grounded guy too!

[@solitaire8585]

Met him a few years back… incredibly warm, kind and appreciative of his fans. He’s exactly who you hope he is.

YA I still bang a few x girlfriends ! A few got fat but some still hot and when they break up I give a shoulder to cry on get them drunk in their pity state and say remember the time I oiled u up and did u in the those stockings and black women shoes and then pull them out from my backseat ! Hell ya brother never let a x sex partner fade away !

[@danacaro-herman3530]

@shreknet. Yes, but there comes a time that parting ways is best. One doesn't have to be together with their ex every holiday, unless one has no family or something related.

TrU, wish I could stay friends with tha man imm about to divorce..but.its not in my personality.. Chris SaRandon was one of thee hottest in tha 80s. Fright Night -🤩

I think Chris Sarandon still looks amazing at 80 years old

[@zorkwork3841]

Good genes

[@Spud773]

I would!😂

[@jojo6028]

It's good to be strong, and friends. This man is forever my vampire neighbor in FRIGHT NIGHT

[@HoldenNY22]

I did like the Original Fright NIght better than the Remake. I do thing the Vampire Villain played by what's his name- the WEll known Irish Actor whose name escapes me was much scarier as the Vampire Villain. I think the Remake wasn't as much fun, but I found it much scarier.

[@tejastrojan]

Welcome to Fright Night... For Reallll

[@finch45lear]

He was awesome in Fright Night !

[@onemargaret]

Loved him in Fright Night. Sexiest vampire ever!!!❤❤❤

[@kathryn1304]

Still crushing on him since Princess Bride…and he’s 30 yrs older than me.

[@kat.woah-man]

He's 55 years older than me and I've had a crush on him since I was little. 😅😂

[@cdxxIV424]

Ew all of you are disturbed. Old wrinkly balls, gross. Yet the world would flip if he was crushing on women your age.

[@runner2008]

I just watched Chris Sarandon in 'Fright Night' a couple of weeks ago, and heck he is super sexy in this movie. Great 80s flick btw.

[@BIGMIKESKNUTTS]

Fantastic movie! Great vampire 🧛🏼‍♂️

[@rosariccardo3529]

Best vampire ever!

[@judyv3246]

Mr. Sarandon is a consumate actor, and a master storyteller... He can disappear into a character so seamlessly that all you see is the character... I love watching him do his thng.. Thank you for doing your thing Mr. Sarandon..

[@Blue_Neptune13]

I refuse to believe he's 80! Damn he looks amazing for his age!

[@dragonwithagirltattoo598]

Glad to hear he’s happy and doing well. Sometimes things just don’t work out. And that’s ok. We rebuild ourselves.

[@Helen-mh8mq]

I never knew they were married!!!Sounds like he is an emotionally healthy person!

[@shantebarze1068]

The last name of Susan should have been a hint.

[@Helen-mh8mq]

@@shantebarze1068 Not really.Im pretty sure 2 people can have the same last name!

[@adamfanalways]

Fright Night is a classic and always will be! He’s the first vampire I remember where he was incredibly sexy and thought of as a beautiful man instead of ugly and scary creature of the night, till you got to know he actually was! Looking at him you wouldn’t suspect him being a creature of the night but he put a new spin on how we saw a vampire! Love ❤️ that movie and all the cast that was in it! I watch it every year!

[@oneyedthing]

Alpha vampires are supposed to look attractive and seductive. Bela Lugosi was first to do it by that standard

[@carolynpalano9284]

​@@oneyedthingand don't forget beautiful Barnabas Collins ❤

[@catsofastypalea]

I had a huge crush on Chris when I first saw him as Jerry Dandridge. Sooooooo handsome and he still is! So great he’s got a lovely family and is happy. 🥰

[@stevevalkos6308]

a very underrated actor

[@Ciclopea2]

Probably the sexiest vampire ever (sorry Robert Pattinson), and also one of the best looking 80 year olds ever, glad to see he's doing well.

[@jptaylor]

Check out Chris in a couple of his early films, “The Sentinel”, and “Dog Day Afternoon”. He was exceptional in both. It’s interesting to see and hear him in his youth. He should’ve been a bigger star than he was, although he’s had a satisfying career. Talented actor that really shines in some of his choice roles. I think it’d be really fun to meet and talk with him. Very interesting and intriguing person.

[@lindamawdsley6130]

Sometimes lessons have to be learnt before we can find our “happy place”, I’d say Chris has definitely found his😊

[@Leesaloves]

He seems like such a good guy and I have enjoyed his work so much.

[@dparks3784]

Handsome at 80. He looks more like 60 or 65.

[@deborahcornell171]

This gentleman is a class act.💙

[@zyzzyvacation]

Chris looks great for a man who just turned 80 . . .

[@roccoz2231]

It's interesting that Susan has kept the last name all these decades after their divorce. But it's not that uncommon. Joni Mitchell, Grace Slick, Suzanne Somers, Demi Moore and Ellen Burstyn all used their ex-married names as their professional names. When people hear the name "Sarandon" they think of Susan before Chris.

[@covenantzoehgirl]

True! I only know there's a "Chris" because of The Princess Bride. I only saw it this last year, wasn't watching movies around those years in my life, at all.. So I looked up to see how they were related, and I'm seriously impressed with the kind of person, his character, as he seems to be unlike a lot of the "stars"... Good to see there are some real people, good people, that were able to remain that way in that environment. I'll look for more of his movies now, he seems to be honestly a good human being! Glory to God 👑 😇

[@himwhoisnottobenamed5427]

God bless Chris! I've always liked you!

[@glamdolly30]

An incredible actor, and comes across as a really genuine, decent guy who has matured and learned valuable lessons from life's inevitable bumps in the road. May we all strive for that wisdom. Sad he didn't want his marriage to Susan Sarandon to end. But having met her, I sense he had a lucky escape! She is charmless and tough as old boots - not half as nice a human as he is, I suspect!

[@tjhx5413]

He made fright night happen without Chris the movie was crap. Still scares me to this day amazing portrayal of a vampire living (dead) in the 80's. Remember this was every kid's fantasy that turned into his worst nightmare. It was slick, provocative, and had you gripping the edge of your seat!

[@gimmethepinkelephant3685]

I can't believe he's 80yrs old. I guess a little bit of Jerry from Fright Night off on him. He looks like he's in his mid-50s.

[@expat0077]

Please, please have James Hong if you can. Love these proper conversations.

I just listened to this on your podcast. I've been a fan since he was on ER but I have to admit that Fright Night is still my favorite role. His smooth delivery and wink at vampire movies was great fun. Now I want to watch it again.

Chris Sarandon was an Adonis in “Tale of two cities” from 1980. He must’ve been around 37 at the time of the movie but he looked younger already then. And he is a fantastic actor not just a pretty one. Edit: I just saw a glimps of a tv movie from ‘85..(43 years old) he looks like in his late twenties 😅what’s the genes 🧬 with this man??

[@victorchristy1706]

Yep! Susan Sarandon did take his name and she should have owed him alimony back then!

[@garyspence2128]

Why?? They both had money at that time, and were up-and-coming actors. Now some men want to go on the dole because you're lucky enough to have a working wife. Don't be a baby, bro!

[@jillhixon4736]

He was so hot in fright night!!!

[@walkerstark4564]

Sarandon was very underrated in otherwise bad Deathwish knock off Lipstick starring the Hemingway sisters. I liked the experimental music his character made that is meant to right away tip you off that he's a psycho perv creep, but I thought the music was very creative and interesting, made him more sympathetic than the Hemingways who get their revenge.

[@cre8tivity87]

He was in Lipstick? I had no business watching that movie at 10/11 yrs old. Probably why I don’t remember him LOL.
