Actually, I think the silver hair & beard suits him & he looks healthy; I remember seeing him in a bit part on some show (Sons of Anarchy?) and he was unrecognizable he was so thin.
Stay sliver, Ponyboy!

He still has those beautiful eyes and his body looks good for his age. Shame his career got reduced to doing TV and B-movies. Soul Man was a colossal error in judgement. He's still working a lot consistently and seems content running his cowboy ranch. His beauty peaked in The Hitcher.

Rae Dawn Chong and Lisa Bonet were basically the Zoe Kravitz and Zendaya of the 80s. The former were just nepotism and the latter got their careers off of family shows.

Ugh, I read that Instagram post; why do celebs/actors give a shit what people on social media say? You're old, not considered hot anymore - just do whatever the hell you want. We expect the desire for social media acceptance from insecure teens & attention whores, but he seems a bit old for that shit.
I bet Diane Lane has zero fucks to give if anyone criticizes her appearance.

Yeah, he looks better with facial hair. Just not so much of it. A nice closely cropped beard and stache will hide a lot of the sins of aging.

I was so in love with him back in the day. Don't know why - surely there were other young things who were hotter - but something about his boy next door look drove me crazy. In the 90s he made a lot of direct-to-video crap with the likes of Joan Severance that sometimes featured reasonably good sex scenes and nudity (in the unrated versions). Used to jerk off to those a lot.

It's so shocking to see the handsome movie stars from my youth age so drastically. Many seem to have dropped off my radar and when I see a present day picture of them it's shocking. Timothy Hutton is another example of this.

No lips at R21 photo. The moustache / beard combo gives the illusion of lips.
Judging by his emojis, he drinks. Judging by his skin, lots of sun.
Somehow, still boyish-looking, though.

He grew up in Los Angeles. So the country accent is definitely affected. Maybe he is portraying himself as an older version of Ponyboy to get fangirls to buy his Outsiders-themed merchandise.

God he does look amazing; if he had work done, it's very subtle.
It has to be kind of hard to have everyone believe you're The Next Big Thing only to overshadowed by mega-stars like Tom Cruise (once he got his teefs fixed) and not so mega, but still big stars like Rob Lowe & Patrick Swayze.

A native Angeleno with a fake, exaggerated-sounding Southern accent. He looks way better in motion to me though. If he was actually 70, he would be a silver fox. Sounds like he's been smoking 20 boxes a day though. Anyway, Soul Man was a stupid decision but it was an attempt at satire which people missed out on. The main issue was C. Thomas did not look anything close to a Black person in that awful makeup and wig. He looked Indian or Pacific Islander maybe but not Black. The idea, everyone thought his character was really Black in the film made the satire fall flat.

r60 I don't think Macchio has anything done, he always looked younger than he was after all, I think he was 22-23 in the Karate Kid and he looked 16 at most, same with The Outsiders, he was 20 there playing a 14 years old and totally looked the part.
To get back a bit on topic, here's Howell with Macchio and Zabka a few years ago. Poor Thomas looks way older than both of them!

For all you folks going on about how "old" and thin Howell looks, like R46 mentioned, he had a ruptured appendix in 2003 that almost killed him. He had to have a good chunk of his intestine and part of his stomach removed to save his life. That's the reason for the skinny frame and there's probably not much he can do about it. Sheesh, have some perspective people.
