By Alice Nichols

If you’re a fan of the National Lampoon’s movies, then you’re probably familiar with the classic comedy “Vegas Vacation.” The movie follows the Griswold family as they embark on a wild adventure in Las Vegas.

One question that fans have been asking for years is, “How old are Rusty and Audrey in Vegas Vacation?” Let’s find out.

Rusty and Audrey Griswold

If you’re not familiar with the Griswold family, Rusty and Audrey are the children of Clark and Ellen Griswold. They have appeared in several National Lampoon’s movies, including “National Lampoon’s Vacation,” “European Vacation,” and “Christmas Vacation.”

In “Vegas Vacation,” Rusty is portrayed by actor Ethan Embry, while Audrey is played by actress Marisol Nichols. The movie was released in 1997, which means that both actors were born in the late 1970s or early 1980s.

Rusty Griswold’s Age

Based on Ethan Embry’s birthdate of June 13, 1978, we can determine that he was around 19 or 20 years old when he filmed “Vegas Vacation.” This makes sense since Rusty is portrayed as being a teenager in the movie.

Audrey Griswold’s Age

Marisol Nichols was born on November 2, 1973. This means that she was around 23 or 24 years old when she played Audrey in “Vegas Vacation.” While Audrey is also portrayed as a teenager in the movie, it’s clear that Nichols was a bit older than her character.

Conclusion

So there you have it. In “Vegas Vacation,” Rusty Griswold was around 19 or 20 years old while Audrey Griswold was around 23 or 24 years old. While they may have been a bit older than their characters, both Ethan Embry and Marisol Nichols did an excellent job of portraying the Griswold siblings in this classic comedy.
