When you go to IMDB or Wikipedia or whatever to look up cast members of older movies, does it slightly annoy you that their photos are their current old wrinkly selves, instead of how they looked at the time they made the movie? Half the time I can't even recognize them. I'm here for the movie info. Not for the actors' latest red carpet appearances 50 years later.

It be nice if they had both. A still from the film and what they look like now so if you recognise the actor from a film you can then see what they look like now.

Agree, a page about a movie should have photos from the time of the movie, perhaps even as seen on screen. Individuals have pages, recent photos are appropriate there
