KEY POINTS

  • Helen Mirren, 80, criticized tech entrepreneurs trying to 'hack aging' during a 2026 Elle interview.
  • She promotes aging as growing up and enjoying life's simple pleasures like wine, Netflix, and nature.
  • Mirren champions a 12-minute 1950s Royal Canadian Air Force workout to stay fit rather than extreme longevity experiments.

Helen Mirren, aged 80 and apparently wiser than 10,000 biohacking tryhards combined, took a victory lap against tech bros obsessed with freezing themselves like avocados in the hope of living forever. Speaking to Elle in 2026, Mirren declared that longevity isn’t about ice baths, capsules, or science-fiction fairy tales, but simply enjoying sunsets, wine, and Netflix—activities tech billionaires ironically can’t monetize. She favors a 12-minute 1950s Royal Canadian Air Force workout that’s so retro it’s practically nostalgia for militaries still barely coordinated. Mirren’s verdict on the whole youth-hacking circus? 'They just haven’t grown up yet.' Bet her wasp-waisted disdain could power a startup.
