Richard Armitage, 51, stripped off and bared all for steamy sex scenes in the new raunchy Netflix thriller Obsession.
However, the actor left fans shocked when they looked up his age and discovered he is in fact 51 years old.
Fans rushed to Twitter to share their shock over the actor’s ageless appearance.
User @MarieSm02786713 said: “Can we agree that Richard Armitage has a fine body for a man of his age and has nothing to worry about.
“He’s actually in better shape than some men half his age!”

@Yookshie added: “I can’t believe richard armitage is 51 and is not yet married #ObsessionNetflix.”
While @RuthMBuchanan commented: “Also me trying to figure out why Richard Armitage doesn’t age.”
@Alexstraodinar quipped: “See how well you age when you’re not problematic? Be like Richard Armitage.”
Fans have been going crazy for the series which landed on Netflix last week.
The series illustrates the obsessive affair between Armitage’s character William Farrow and his son’s fiancee Anna Barton, played by Charlie Murphy.
In an interview with Metro, Armitage spoke about how he largely improvised a scene where William compulsively sniffed a pillow that Anna had recently used.
He explained: “It was really unexpected because it was written as quite a different scene.
“There was a tissue with the imprint of her lipstick on which we didn’t feel necessarily worked.
“I was conscious that it shouldn’t be in any way comedic so we sort of left it quite open and it was actually a bit of an improvisation.”
The scene involves William staking out the hotel room where Anna had just stayed with his son Jay, then getting undressed and breathing in her scent from the pillow while writhing on the bed.
Netflix have since sent out a warning for those watching the series, despite it being rated as an 18.
Netflix’s account in UK and Ireland put a statement on Twitter which playfully jibed: “If you’ve made the (questionable) decision to watch Obsession with your parents, these are the moments you’ll probably want to excuse yourself.”
They then tweeted out the exact times people might feel a little uncomfortable about the steamy scenes.
