Morgan Freeman falls asleep during interview!

Going... going... gone!

You tend to forget that at 75-years-old, Morgan Freeman is technically old enough to be your grandfather! During those advancing years, two things are for certain: a) you will start to wear your trousers higher than Simon Cowell and b) you'll fall asleep quicker than someone with narcolepsy.

So perhaps we shouldn't be surprised that Freeman decided to catch forty winks whilst being interviewed on live TV about his upcoming movie. As his Now You See Me co-star Michael Caine discussed their latest Hollywood outing with Fox News, Freeman was seen to be nodding off.

Or was he?

The wily old star was quick to rebuff claims he had dozed off as he took to his Facebook to explain what really happened.

"Regarding my recent interview, I wasn't actually sleeping," he explained. "I'm a beta tester for Google Eyelids and I was merely taking the opportunity to update my Facebook page."

He might be eligible for a free bus pass, but like a lot of OAPs, he is still as sharp as a razor.
