With a diverse filmography spanning decades and genres, Jones has had a remarkable career in Hollywood, consistently charming audiences with his warm smile.

On January 17, 2023, Jones marks his 92nd birthday, surrounded by family, including his son. Despite his age, the actor displays no signs of slowing down, emphasizing his love for work and commitment to acting for as long as possible.

Turning 90, Jones expressed growing wiser with each passing year and shared his hopes for increased love and respect among people in the years to come. He affirmed his youthful spirit and enthusiasm for acting, expressing a willingness to embrace roles that captivate him, irrespective of age.

Jones, married to Cecilia Hart for 34 years, met her on the set of the TV series “Paris.” They tied the knot in 1982 after starring together in an “Othello” revival and welcomed their son, Flynn Earl Jones, the same year.
