How Old Is the Cast of Netflix's The Politician in Real Life? Let's Break It Down

The cast of Ryan Murphy's Netflix comedy The Politician is packed with talent from Hollywood and Broadway alike. Led by Tony winner Ben Platt and costarring Hollywood A-listers such as Gwyneth Paltrow and Judith Light, the show revolves around an ambitious young man who is determined to become president someday.
