Name Pages: Add age to name pages
Please bring back the age next to the birthdate!! Instead of making the app match the site, why not make the site match the app? I don’t like having to do math to figure out an actor’s age when the app can just tell me with a quick glance. And it’s a feature I actually use (or did use, before it was removed) A LOT.

Thanks for reaching out! At this time (as you note), we’ve removed ages for living persons from Name pages in order to unify our experience across web and apps. If we make any changes, I'll be sure to follow up with you directly on this thread.

Weird. I just noticed this and it’s like the most antiquated move for developers to take. So odd.

This reply was created from a merged topic originally titled No age shown on app like it used to be.. Like the title there is no age displayed like before. I know without it you can calculate yourself but it's easier when you see it immediately.

This reply was created from a merged topic originally titled What happened to actors ages, and death dates, on the iOS app?. I currently can only see their date of birth, with no age next to it, or date of death under it. It’s not a huge deal, I’m just wondering why it’s gone, because it doesn’t seem like a feature that would be removed? (It’s happening with everyone, by the way, not just Justin Bieber.)

This reply was created from a merged topic originally titled CURRENT AGE of actors/filmmakers is Missing :-(. Hello. First of all, i have to say that l'm a huge fan of IMDb site. I really appreciate such huge database. It's clearly the best website about movies in the world! (of course for those who can read in english). I am from Poland. I can proudly say that we have Polish biggest movie site called Filmweb (http://www.filmweb.pl/) not that powerfull as IMDb but it is in the top 10 worldwide. And the only thing that annoys me, is that filmweb has the current age of an artist (next to he's date of birth) and IMDb Doesn't. examples: Mel gibson (http://www.filmweb.pl/person/Mel.Gibson) Jason Statham (http://www.filmweb.pl/person/Jason.Statham) There must be some easy was to add function that would compare date of birth to current date and show age of a person I'm begging You, can anyone do something about this issue? Best regards Dragan V.

This reply was created from a merged topic originally titled Name Pages: Add "AGE" to each person on the IMDb page. Hi Please add the AGE of each person im searching so i dont have to calculate it. Example with Gary Oldman: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000198/?ref_=tt_ov_st It says he is born in 1958 but it would be great to have his current age at the time i search. Thanks

This reply was created from a merged topic originally titled Name Pages: Include age for actors.. IMDB Only provides the date of birth of the actor. you have to calculate their age yourself. It would be nice if you could calculate their birthday and display the real age, like wikipedia does.

Even though IMDb is not stating this, I am guessing that removing the ages from both the website and app is related to legislation passed by the state of California in 2016: https://www.theguardian.com/film/2016... The law was declared unconstitutional in February, but it sounds like that is being appealed: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr... However, IMDb might have decided that it's safer to just not show anyone's age.
