In a heartbeat, you’ll recognize the names on this list. The following stars have left their mark on Hollywood, long before some of us even knew how to walk. That is how iconic they are. Their breathtaking roles in television and film have proven that they deserve the title of “great”. Actually great doesn’t quite cover it, these women are extraordinary. These are the kinds of names we will still be talking about in millennia to come. Let’s revisit some of Hollywood’s biggest stars who transformed TV and film into the glory we know it to be now.

Lea Thompson

Let’s catch up with Lorraine Baines from the Back to the Future trilogy, because well, that role and film are both as iconic as it gets. 56 year old Lea Thompson started acting in commercials at just age 20 but man has she come a long way since. From 2011 to 2017, she starred in the family series Switched at Birth, and also went on to finish 6th in season 19 of Dancing With The Stars.

Bo Derek

Firstly, Bo Derek’s real name is Mary Cathleen Collins but that’s not the most surprising part. Derek is 60! Dang, how time flies and she hasn’t aged a bit. Derek is well known for her roles in 10, Tarzan, the Ape Man, Bolero, and Ghosts Can’t Do It. Currently she is in semi-retirement, therefore occasionally she makes film, TV, and documentary appearances.
