Severus Snape was only 32 years old when Harry went to Hogwarts for the first time. And 38 years old when he died.
And we know thanks to Professor Trelawney that Snape overhears the prophecy that Harry would be Voldemort's mortal enemy, meaning he first interviewed the year Harry was born. Presumably he started that fall, so Snape was either 20 or 21 when he began at Hogwarts.
This was not long before the first film came out - maybe even after it did - and even if it was before, by that point Warners may already have cast Alan Rickman, who was a lovely actor and a lovely person but really 20+ years too old for Snape, who is only 31 when we first meet him.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire At one point, Snape is named as a Death Eater by Igor Karkaroff, but Dumbledore comes to Snape's defence, claiming that although Snape had indeed been a Death Eater, he changed sides before Voldemort's downfall and turned spy against him.
Despite his attraction to the Dark Arts and Voldemort's ideology of wizard supremacy, Snape's love for Muggle-born Lily Evans, Harry's mother, eventually compelled him to defect from the Death Eaters. He then became a double agent for Albus Dumbledore and the Order of the Phoenix.
Severus Snape was loyal to Lily Potter, and the loyalty he gave to Albus Dumbledore was far from being deserved.
