Ernie Hudson, 78, Shares Secrets to Staying Fit, Reacts to Online Thirst: ‘Nice to Be Noticed’

Ernie Hudson opens up to PEOPLE exclusively about how he stays fit and sexy at 78 — and reacts to all the online thirst coming his way. 'It's nice to be noticed,' says the 'Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire' star.

At a photo call for his new movie Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire in London on March 21, the veteran actor, 78, says he got a smudge on his suit jacket, so he took it off and posed on the red carpet wearing just jeans and a tight black T-shirt. When images of Hudson popped up online over the next several days, people took notice, and they weren’t shy about sharing their opinions. “I see these guys who really pump up and they got these massive arms and six-packs and all that, that's not what my career has been about,” adds Hudson, who, in addition to playing Winston Zeddemore in the Ghostbuster franchise, has also starred on the HBO series Oz.
