April 10 Information
Lavi's actors
I recently created the article
Lavi (D.Gray-man) but couldn't find anything regarding how one of his English actors had to replace him due to a car accident. It appears to be common knowledge but I couldn't find a single source about it. Cheers.

Question about seniors working in the movie industry
Quartet (2012 film) featured a cast of older actors and musicians. The closing credits include picture when they were young and describe some career highlights. Again the ages of the crew would be harder to figure out.

In Space Cowboys (2000), 7 of the first 10 credited cast members according to the IMDB were 53-54 to 71-72 years old (depending on when in the year their birthdays were vs. when it was shot). In order by year of birth:
This question is placing "senior" age a bit high. Senior discounts tend to start around 55. My insurance company started giving me a senior discount at 50. The movie theater by my is 60. But, overall, it is around 55 to be a senior, not 70. In Hollywood, it is much lower. Females are seniors by 30 and men are seniors by 40. The reality is that it can be hard for a lot of people over 70 to deal with work - and movie acting is work, doing the same scene over and over and over for hours on end. Not everyone can be like the Rolling Stones.

Wikipedia has some definitions of
senior citizen listed at the article titled "Old age". It appears you have over-corrected; while some definitions define "seniors" as low as 55, "legal retirement age" seems to be the best working definition, which in the U.S. is 65. --
