Paul Rudd, 56, Looks Decades Younger Arriving in Sydney

He may be creeping towards the big 60. 

But Hollywood heartthrob Paul Rudd, 56, could have easily passed for a man decades younger as he touched down at Sydney Airport on Tuesday. 

The hunk, who last visited Australia in April when he wrapped his latest film in Queensland, was spotted at Sydney Airport looking ageless in a blue T-shirt and navy trackpants. 

Rudd, sporting a 5 o’clock shadow and carrying his phone, also wore a baseball cap and a pair of slip-on clogs.

The Clueless star completed his look with a set of black-rimmed spectacles and a large black backpack.

Rudd was seen getting the VIP treatment after leaving the plane, with an attendant escorting him through the arrivals terminal to his transport.

It’s unclear why the Captain America star has returned Down Under.

But the trip is likely linked to the Anaconda reboot, which is being completed in Australia.

Rudd has been keeping up a busy social schedule, with the actor joining Hollywood royalty for the wedding of Selena Gomez and music producer Benny Blanco over the weekend.

The A-list guests, including Gomez’s Only Murders in the Building co-stars Steve Martin and Martin Short.

Steve Martin co-created Only Murders in the Building and has starred in it with Gomez and Martin Short throughout its acclaimed five-season run.

Meanwhile, Rudd has been a special guest star on the past three seasons of the program, showcasing his versatility by playing a variety of characters.

It comes after Rudd co-starred with funnyman Jack Black in the upcoming action comedy, Anaconda, a loose remake of the 1997 horror film about a giant species of man-eating snake. 

Once dubbed ‘The Sexiest Man Alive’, Rudd is probably best known for his role in the Anchorman films alongside co-stars Will Ferrell, Steve Carrell and Christina Applegate.

Rudd and Black shared that the new production will be a departure from the original shocker which starred Jennifer Lopez, Owen Wilson, Ice Cube and Jon Voight.

Set in the Amazon, the first film centred on a group of filmmakers who encounter a giant anaconda.  

Taking to social media with their own cheeky trailer in January, the pair of funnymen gave fans a taste of what they can look forward to.

Black and Rudd appear to be holding back laughter throughout the short clip, which the School of Rock star says was ‘made on his phone’.

After announcing their starring roles in the new blockbuster, Black joked about the film’s title, saying, ‘It might be “The Anaconda”…Whatever, there’s gonna be a big f***ing snake and it’s gonna rip.’

Rudd then added: ‘You wanna get scared ? You wanna laugh? You wanna celebrate with your friends? Or maybe you’re sad and have nobody, but just wanna forget about that? It’s coming out on Christmas in 2025.’

During the trailer the pair confirmed that the Anaconda reboot is set to hit cinemas by Christmas 2025.

Black finishes the trailer, which appears to be filmed in a studio, by turning to his co-star and asking, ‘Dude have you seen the snake? It’s in that room right there. They’re about to feed it a donkey. Come on.’
