Scott Glenn: Not a Badass at 75

Interested in some life advice, including some about maintaining your physical fitness, from a septuagenarian?

A former Marine who spent some time working as a journalist before turning to acting, Scott Glenn has been a Special Forces lieutenant working for a genius-madman in Vietnam, a fireman, an astronaut, a cowboy, an FBI agent, the commander of a nuclear submarine and Matt “Daredevil” Murdock's mentor. He's fit and he uses knife katas to work out, but he does not like the word “badass.”

GQ:  So the key to looking like you when you’re 75 is never stop being a badass.
