I'm sure there were rumours that Voight has Alzheimers.

I guess we should mark the death today of Burt Reynolds here also.

 

Although my personal favourite performance from him was in The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas.

For some reason, the Guardian published an interview with John Boorman who is 87 years old now and has age-appropriate illnesses, but nothing too dramatic:

Experts called upon - how's Jon Voight looking? https://www.express.co.uk/celebrity-news/1733017/angelina-jolie-dad-jon-voight-rare-appearance-errands-age-hollywood-2023-pictures

 

Made me laugh that they think Voight is only really famous for being Angelina Jolie's dad! :lol: I'd say it's the other way around, but that's deffo an age thing.

Yeah I skipped over him because his role wasn't significant in the film and he's so young he could easily be around for another 30+ years.

But now a name in his own right. A catch for the future.
