JOHNNY - FOREVER YOUNG

It's fitting that Johnny Depp, 41, plays the author of Peter Pan in his new flick Finding Neverland - the tale of a boy who never grows old - because his boyish good looks haven't changed since he first hit our screens in 1984.

Actress Kate Winslet says she's amazed by her co-star's youthful look. "He must have some kind of potion or something... because he just looks ridiculously good," she says.

Experts put his youthful appearance down to his Cherokee heritage. "Native Americans age well because they have very olive skin," says Hollywood plastic surgeon Dr. Paul Jarrod Frank.

The star's lifestyle has also kept him young. He lives in France with his partner, actress and model Vanessa Paradis, 32, drinking wine (which is said to help defy age) and chasing their two kids, Jack, two and Lily-Rose, five.
