I wouldn't be surprised if she, like a lot of people in the biz, shaved a few years off her age early on in her career. Like maye she passed for 20 when she was 25. Happens all the time
Anyway, I was born in 1957. I've seen a number of classmates at a 30 year reunion recently and a lot of them look Ol-l-l-l-l-ld. I don't look that old nor does my wife some of us age better than others. -

It genetic, look at Farrah Fawcett's parents, very normal looking and quite wrinkled but cute. Farrah is fighting bad genesSMOKING PLAYS A HUGE ROLE in aging. People who smoke for years often look 10 years older when they get to their 40's!

I agree; she looks like she partied HARD! Probably didn't take care of her skin when she was younger and then smoked and drank a lot and maybe spent a lot of time in the Sun. My mother is 61 and looks younger than Rachel Ward. Maybe genetics have played some part, but I think too many late nights for too long did the main job of contributing to why she has aged so poorly.
Too bad. She could have aged gracefully. -

You all are discussing how old she is, please leave her alone shes still gorgeous and we all are gonna be old some day is just a question of time and she looks better than some young actress that if you see without make up would look horroble. She didnt lost her light just got more experience.

You gotta be kidding. We are NOT discussing how old she is but how old she LOOKS and you don't get to looking like she does without doing something to prematurely age yourself. Like smoking, drinking, partying, baking out in the Sun and perhaps some Bolivian Marching Powder thrown in the mix.
NOTES: The word is "horrible", not "horroble".
This sentence makes no sense: "She didn't lost her light just got more experience". Huh? Do you mean she didn't LOSE her light?
She may be a wonderful person; to that end I have no idea. But for someone not yet 50 she looks OLD and that's that. -

She does not look bad, however she does look older then someone born in 1957.
She may have taken a "few years off" when she was starting out; saying she was younger then she actually was. That is nothing unusual for an actress to do -

i personally think that shes still very pretty.. its just a matter of taste like i think she looks better with longer hair.. that short doo is unnatractive.. her makeup should cover more but be soft and natural

What do people mean when they say she probably took some years off her age early in her career? Does that mean she wasn't really born in 1957, but earlier? I know back in the 40s and 50s it was very common for actors especially female) to take some years off their age. It was never anything significant though, it was usually always just 3, 4, 5. I don't really see the point of that, since there's really no physical difference between someone who is 23 and someone who is 27 (for example). But I guess the industry made a year of age seem like ten back then.

I know this is an old post, but if you're quoting dates, get them right.

Rene Russo 1954
Additionally, don't compare anybody's looks to Meg Ryan - nobody knows what Meg Ryan should actually look like now. -

I dont know why I am posting on here but I am.
Resurrecting an old thread.
I don't know what sorts of weed everyone is smoking. She is a 60 year old! She is one hell of a good looking/super hot 60 year old. Have you seen what 60 year old's look like in your real life that surrounds you.
She238 actually doesn't look that different from when she was a top leading lady for a very short period. I remember her from early 80s. You should compare her to Kathleen Turner. There is a very slight difference of age but they were both top box office actresses back in early 80s for a short while. Rachel Ward much shorted than Turner who went on to make quite a few well grossing films. Ward on the other hand seemed to make the conscious decision to get married and focus on married like with Bryan Brown in Australia. She had a pretty short run. I first saw her in Sh5b4arkey's Machine in first run theaters and then a few years later on Thorn Birds and Against All Odds after that. I think the career shot of teetered off in late 80s.
For the record she is a British actress who married an Australian actor and moved to Australia.
Can this really be the end..to be stuck inside of mobile
with the Memphis blues again.
