Michael French- 59

Michael French knew early in life that acting was what he wanted to do. After years of actively participating in school productions, the star landed his first paying acting gig at 22, with a local theatre in London. He finally got his major break on BBC’s soap opera, EastEnders.

French has since been on multiple shows, with his last appearance being on 2014’s musical, The Sound Of Music, as Captain Von Trapp. He has yet to make an official retirement announcement, so we hope the entertainer will be returning to our screens soon, as he is only in his late fifties.
