It's difficult to predict mortality rates. Advanced healthcare techniques (e.g. CRISPR) could completely eradicate entire classes of diseases (kind of like how anti-biotics and vaccinations changed healthcare completely), or they could lead to nothing.
So we might find that the average age of death jumps up by 20+ years in the next 50-60 years (just like it did after WW2).
Nuclear war aside we almost certainly won't see a drop in the average age.
