40 British Actors and Actresses From Time Past and What They’re up to These Days

Marina Sirtis – 68

Fans of Star Trek can spot Marina Sirtis from miles away -just look at that unaffected beauty! Sirtis played the infamous role of Counsellor Troi in the cult show Star Trek: The Next Generation alongside with also making appearances in the feature films that followed. She was known also as the woman crush on everyone’s minds at the time, particularly for her grace and lovely, luscious hair.

Helen Mirren (Born in 1945) – The Queen

British actress Helen Mirren made history as the only actor to have played both Elizabeth I and Elizabeth II on screen. And she must have done well enough to earn a DBE from Queen Elizabeth in 2003. Those roles were a far cry from the minor roles she had landed when she first began acting in the ’60s.

Her acting spans a wide range of characters. So you can see her in the romantic comedy “Hitchcock.” But if action movies are more your style, her roles in the “Red” and “Fast & Furious” franchises would be appealing. In 2022, she played “The Spider” in “Sniff.”
