40's sort of a midpoint or turning point, where you can seem young or middle-aged, depending on how you're made to look. You can be a strange combination of young and middle-aged, or perhaps neither, like Tom Baker in Doctor Who. Jonathan Frid looked like that in his first DS moments.
I remember that David Letterman kept having to remind guests on his NBC show in the 80s that he was in his 30s (36 when the show started in 1982), because he was a bit baby-faced. Then I noticed that there was a sudden spurt of aging at 39 for him, and he looked middle-aged and no one called him a kid ever again. I don't remember a sudden moment for JF, but he did seem to catch up to his age and perhaps overshoot a little....
