Lea Thompson – 58 YEARS OLD

Lea Thompson wanted so badly to become a ballerina, but when she tried out and was then called too fat to become one, she changed her plans and instead transitioned to acting which later became her best career decision yet. The actress eventually found success after this small hiccup when she earned acting credits from movies like the Back to the Future trilogy as well as TV shows like the sitcom Caroline in the City. She has partially retired from the industry and has since handed the acting reins over to her daughter Zoey Deutch who is also an actress.

Lea Thompson is an American actor, TV director, and TV producer. Her masterpieces include “Back to the Future” and the NBC sitcom “Caroline in the City”. Thompson married director Howard Deutch in 1989. They met in the movie “Their Story”. Thompson and Howard Deutch have two daughters, Madelyn and Zoey.
