So is the dude next him. Neither are passible.

Lol, that dude is John Travolta

Yea and he is like 23 iirc when filming that. Don't get me wrong that other guy is probably older, 23 isn't terrible for an actor playing a teen. But he does not look like a teenager.

Yes, that's the point.

He was 24 when Grease was made.

The guy next to him is Michael Tucci, who was 32 at the time.

Luke Perry at the beginning of 90210 was the same age as Travolta. Then later on the same age is Tucci in the same series.

It’s because we associate appearances of older generations as older, even when they pass as kids at the time

You can find kids saying the same thing about 90s movies even when they look like high schoolers did
