Connery worked blue collar jobs as a teenager, and by the time he was 19 had been in the Royal Navy for a couple years. He then started training as a bodybuilder. He didn’t start acting until about then, and that was just for a little extra money.
The other fella is a child actor, starting his career when he was 11.
Here’s another still of Sean from Marnie (1964) tho, so I guess post is a bit misleading, since Sean looks just like his age at that moment, and photo in the post really feels like make-up to make him look older.
If anything, that’s Thomas Brodie-Sangster still looking 16.
