Timothy Olyphant is ageing like a fine wine.<\/p>\n
The Hollywood star, who reached heart-throb status in the late 90s and early noughties on films such as Scream 2, Go and The Girl Next Door, has appeared in his latest project looking very much like a silver fox.<\/p>\n
The 58-year-old stars alongside Jennifer Garner on the new Peacock series The Five-Star Weekend, which premieres locally on BINGE<\/a> on July 9 \u2013 and that distinct smile he flashes on screen reminds us millennials why we were crushing hard on him back in the day.<\/p>\n In the eight-episode drama series, Olyphant plays Jack Finnigan, the childhood boyfriend of Garner\u2019s character Hollis Shaw. <\/p>\n The pair are reunited when Hollis, a now famous food blogger, returns to their hometown of Nantucket after the tragic death of her husband. <\/p>\n As she retreats to the Massachusetts island for a weekend away with her five closest friends in an attempt to forget her grief, Hollis is soon faced with the hard truths, including her true feelings for Jack.<\/p>\n Stream The Five-Star Weekend on BINGE, available on Hubbl<\/a>.<\/p>\n The series reunites Olyphant and Garner on screens for the first time since the 2006 rom-com Catch and Release. <\/p>\n In that classic film, Garner plays a woman named Gray Wheeler whose fiance, Grady, tragically dies in a boating accident right before their wedding.<\/p>\n After moving in with Grady\u2019s friends because she couldn\u2019t afford their place anymore, Gray falls for his friend Fritz (played Olyphant), but the guilt and emotional mess becomes all too much.<\/p>\n Despite not crossing paths for 20 years, Garner still has a soft spot for her co-star. <\/p>\n In a recent interview with InStyle<\/a> to promote Five-Star Weekend, Garner couldn\u2019t help but fawn over the actor. <\/p>\n \u201cHe does smoulder well,\u201d she told the publication with a smile. <\/p>\n Olyphant has continued to work consistently over the years, starring roles in shows like Deadwood, Justified and Santa Clarita Diet. <\/p>\n The actor also has five other projects in the pipeline and says that he\u2019s enjoying his career more now than he did when he was younger.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m having a ball. I\u2019m enjoying it more than I ever have,\u201d he told Empire<\/a> this month of his 30-year career. <\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m in a pretty sweet spot. Oh my God, [on Lucky] I just worked with Annette Bening, Anya [Taylor-Joy] \u2026 I\u2019ve been able to work with some of my heroes. People are handing me good material. I\u2019m just having a joy of a time on set. I feel like I\u2019m getting away with something.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve been working a lot more than I used to,\u201d he added. \u201cSo I feel like, if this continues, the amount of work and how much I\u2019m enjoying it, I got a few more years left. I\u2019ll keep going for a little bit. If they\u2019ll let me.\u201d<\/p>\n The Five-Star Weekend premieres July 9 on BINGE.<\/p>\n Read related topics:Binge<\/a>Foxtel<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Timothy Olyphant is ageing like a fine wine.
