The reason they do this, for the most part, is child labor laws right? For the most part yeah. Shooting schedules, tutors, the whole nine yards. Thats why most cast 18 plus. Mia Kunis lied about her age to get cast in That 70s Show. She was actually 15, but the producers liked her so much that they kept her on. Actually, I think she was 13 when she was hired.

Here is an old one.
William Bendix was over 40 when he played the title role in “The Babe Ruth Story” in 1948
They got a child actor to play Babe as a kid… but got Bendix to play Babe from 12 years old onward .. it was quite something

Rachel Mccadams was her in mid-20's when she played Regina George in Mean Girls.
Scott Wolf is like 12 years older than his Party of Five character Bailey Salinger

All the cast of the first 3 Porky's films. By that third movie Pee Wee was pushing 40. Pee Wee actor Dan Monahan was 30 when Porky's 3 came out. The surprising one was the actor that played Meat, who looked to actually be in his 40s in Porky's 3, was the youngest of the core group. He was 26.

Wow I would have figured Pee Wee was 27 in the first film. Meat looked old as hell in Porky's Revenge. I think part of them all looking so old in Porkys Revenge now to me is I just got in the Kino Lober Blu ray of 2 and 3 and yea the boost in resolution really really shows the wrinkles and age lines.

If I remember right in Ginger Snaps the younger sister was in her mid twenties compared to her older sister who was 18 or 19. I forgot. Speaking of "Ginger Snaps," Katharine Isabelle was about 26 when "Another Cinderella Story" was filmed. Also, Danielle Harris was about 29 when Rob Zombie's "Halloween" was filmed. As for "Halloween II," she was about 31 but it's confusing to say if it took place one year after the first or two years. The theatrical cut says it was one year while the director's cut says two years.

While the characters' ages are never explicitly mentioned, it's heavily implied that the gang members in "The Warriors" are all supposed to be teenage delinquents, with the leader of The Orphans even mentioning the gang having a social worker.
Except for Cochise (David Harris), who was about 19/20 at the time of filming, everyone in the cast was in their early-to-mid 20's, with Swan (Michael Beck) and Cyrus (Roger Hill) being the oldest at around 30.

There were certainly a few unfortunately early balding seniors at my high school, but yeah that's a grown ass man It has to be a gag cause why do you need an extra there? I guess CRTVs would cover it up? Could of been a situation where an actual 20 year old extra didn't show up or got sick and some middle aged PA filled in and they hoped no one would notice.

Random thing to think about: has a teenager ever played one of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? Either voice or suit actor?

In The Birdcage a 32 year-old Calista Flockhart plays a "not even 18" year-old.

I'm 40 and I still pretend I'm in high school.
It's not as easy since security through me out, but I just pretend I'm on extended spring break.

In Private Parts a 40+ year old Howard Stern plays himself when he was at college. Ok, they even mention on the narration that it looks ridiculous and that you have to suspend disbelief but hey, it counts!

I’ve not read it but in the novel they’re teenagers; the film made all of them a bit older.
