Kevin Bacon, 66, stars in The Bondsman on Prime Video, blending action-horror with family drama. Still thriving in acting and music after 40+ years!
Hey, have you heard about Kevin Bacon lately? At 66, he’s still absolutely killing it in Hollywood—no signs of slowing down at all! You probably remember him from classics like Footloose (who doesn’t love that dance scene?) and A Few Good Men (cue the “You can’t handle the truth!” line). He’s been in the game for over 40 years, and honestly, it’s wild how he keeps reinventing himself.
Right now, he’s starring in a new series called The Bondsman on Prime Video, and it sounds like a total thrill ride. It’s an action-horror show where he plays a bounty hunter who comes back from the dead and ends up tangled with some demonic forces.
I mean, talk about a comeback story—literally! Kevin himself has said it’s got a mix of intense character work and all the fun, physical stuff like action and scares, but at its core, it’s about family. That blend of depth and adrenaline? Yeah, I’m sold.
And let’s not forget, he’s still making music with his brother Michael in The Bacon Brothers. They’ve been at it since the ‘90s, and he’s always got new tunes in the works. It’s like the guy never stops creating.
What I love about Kevin Bacon is how versatile he is. He can jump from drama to action to horror and even rock out on stage—not many actors can pull that off. He’s said before that he loves the challenge of acting and that every role is a chance to explore something new.
I think that’s what keeps him going. It’s inspiring to see someone who’s been in the industry for so long still pushing himself and trying fresh things.So, if you’re a fan (or even if you’re just curious), keep an eye out for The Bondsman and his latest music. Kevin Bacon’s definitely not done yet—and I, for one, can’t wait to see what he does next!
