Did any successful actors ‘actually’ start after 40?

I’ve done searches on this sub-reddit and searched the Internet but the results are always the same as the question is always misinterpreted.

When people answer this question they talk about actors that started their climb to success after forty but a quick read into their background shows they had schooling, college/university or previous experience as they grew up.

I am interested in any actors who were in a career and begun the study of acting on the side after 35/40, got discovered or found success. Bonus points if this wasn’t in the major hubs such as London, New York or Los Angeles.

This is just a question of curiosity.
