In the railway children, Sally Thomsett, who played Phyllis, was 2 years older than the girl who played Bobbie. She was 21, playing an 8 year old, and had a clause in her contract saying that she had to pretend to be 16.

Or in the classic
North by Northwest
(Alfred Hitchcock, 1959), Jessie Royce Landis plays the mother of Cary Grant even though she was only a little over seven years older than the dashing Grant.
In other words, for better or worse, we're talking about a longtime Hollywood convention.
years older than Harrison Ford, and yet he played his dad in "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade".. but lets face it.. Who else could have?
