Personally, I think it's more of an ego-stroke, these old actors revivng long-retired characters.
If they think their characters are so "well developed", and need "new stories to tell", perhaps they ought to take a cue from the Bond franchise, and hire new, younger actors to play the parts.
Old Ahnold in Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines
Old Sly in Rocky Balboa
Old Bruce in Live Free Or Die Hard
Old Sly in Rambo
That said, this is the one I'm waiting for:
Harrison Ford in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
