A Gallery of Action Stars in Their Early Years

Alright, so I will admit this was originally going to be an “Expendables when they were young” gallery, but as it turns out, there are not pictures of Terry Crews or Dolph Lundgren when they were really young, so I just scrapped it and decided to extend the concept to ALL action stars.

As you can see above, some are easier to recognize than others (how old WAS he in that picture? Good lord!), but some are not, and I’ve left names off the pictures below on purpose so you can guess at them. The answers are on the very bottom if you’d like to cheat, or I suppose you could just mouse over each picture to get the image name.

If you feel I’ve missed any action stars and think there’s another picture that would be good here, just let me know and I’ll add it to the list.
