Last year, Bored Panda wrote about famous people who made it only after they hit 30. Naturally, we're not used to seeing these people when they were young adults, but it only makes us even more curious, because, well, haven't you ever wondered what Morgan Freeman looked like in his twenties? Because we sure did. Therefore, Bored Panda has made you a short list of people that we haven't seen as young adults and teenagers before. So scroll down below to vote for the ones that you like and that surprised you the most!

He looks very handsome in his youth photo. Now, he just looks distinguished.

The first time I had ever seen Colin Firth was when he was in 1984's "Another Country". It also featured Rupert Everett and Cary Elwes. We were all young and pretty back then, weren't we?

I went to a movie premiere back in 1995 in NYC, I forget the picture now. He arrived with his wife and son, and my god. Photographs didn't do him justice. He was an absolutely beautiful man. He may photograph weird, but he was so hot in person, I did a double take. And his wife looked at us all gawping at her man like the cat who'd gotten the cream.

He looks like he was probably just as funny when he was young as he is now.

Did not really change a lot. The question now is: Does he still look young or did he always look old?

A great actor who's at his best when he's not just playing himself, which isn't very often.

Stephen King didn't want Nicholson in The Shining, and to this day hates the movie. Jack had just won raves in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, where he played a mental patient. King did not want people thinking the father was already insane (the hotel is what pushes the father into insanity, and it's a huge arc in the book), because of his role in Cuckoo.

Jack had at least two appearances on The Andy Griffith Show when he was young. One is where Opie and his pal find a baby that'd been abandoned, and keep it until Jack's character and his wife show up to claim it. Can't remember how they glossed over the fact that the child had been abandoned, but it must have involved some real fast talkin'. Then there was the episode I call 11 angry men and one calm lady. Aunt Bea was on jury duty, and proceeded to hold up a quick guilty verdict by refusing to believe that Jack's character could have looted the local Dept. Store, probably Weavers. Aunt Bea said jack was too good looking to be a robber. In the meantime, the real criminal decided to stick around long enough to get caught himself, while he ranted and raved that Aunt Bea was standing in the way of justice. Of course, Aunt Bea was right. Andy got him to admit a lighter dropped when the store was looted was his. Oh, and rumors that Jack those parts thru Aunt Bea's casting couch have never been confirmed.

Nicholson is amazing in THE CRY BABY KILLER (1958). He was just 21. There are scenes on YouTube.

Ah.. Jackie... he was too cool for school... I'd drink with him and mess around a bit, but I know he's a lady killer, so it'd be a quick fling...

In every other picture I can easily see the connection between the older and younger versions. I cannot, for the life of me see it here with Ms. Stewart.

I had to LOL at the '60s pic - straight out of Central Casting! I'll vote for whoever our candidate ends up being, but Bernie's my first choice.
