Ageless Ant-Man Paul Rudd turns 50 and no one on Twitter believes it
If there's a Fountain of Youth, the Marvel actor's found it.
- Co-author of two Gen X pop-culture encyclopedia for Penguin Books. Won "Headline Writer of the Year" award for 2017, 2014 and 2013 from the American Copy Editors Society. Won first place in headline writing from the 2013 Society for Features Journalism.
Actor Paul Rudd, who plays Ant-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, turned 50 years old on Saturday. Or maybe he didn't, because social media had a blast pointing out his superpower seemed to be never aging.

Happy 50th to the ever charming, ever boyish Paul Rudd. Fifty is incidentally the number of virgins whose blood he baths in per annum. pic.twitter.com/M1nH8kA5u9

I could play Paul Rudd’s older brother.

I’m 40.
Some fans pointed out that 50 isn't exactly 150. "Does everyone think people turn into the Crypt Keeper when they turn 30?" asked Lindsey Romain.
i think paul rudd looks his age because tons of 50 year olds look that way, does everyone think people turn into the crypt keeper when they turn 30?

Others pointed out he's not the only actor who manages to stay youthful. "I'm not saying Paul Rudd doesn't look great at 50, but I raise you with Jared Leto at 47," wrote one Twitter user.

Rudd himself isn't afraid to share his secret. "I'm 80 years old on the inside," Rudd said at a recent event, the Chicago Tribune reports. He then pointed to his chest and continued, "In here, pure darkness -- and a little moisturizer."
The ageless Rudd will be seen again in Avengers: Endgame, which comes out later this month.
