Where Are They Now?
Tom Selleck
Tom Selleck has been a household name for a long time. However, Selleck actually didn’t make it big until he was thirty-five! In 1980, Selleck finally got his big break as the star in the TV show “Magnum P.I.” which earned him a Golden Globe and an Emmy.

He is still acting today; you can catch him on the TV show “Blue Bloods” and on your favorite reruns of “Friends.”
Molly Ringwald
We all remember hits like “Pretty and Pink” and “The Breakfast Club,” which Ringwald starred in as a teenager. Molly Ringwald has been a role model for many teen actors, as she has been in the limelight since she was young. Ringwald is still active today and has been a part of projects like “Riverdale” and the teen movie “Kissing Booth.”
Meryl Streep
Meryl Streep is one of the best actresses of her generation and keeps thriving today! She has won over a hundred awards for her acting skills and still continues to wow the audience. She started her career on the stage, but it wasn’t long before she broke into television. We love her roles, from the tough Miranda Priestly in “The Devil Wears Prada” to the loving Donna Sheridan in “Mamma Mia” and every role in-between!
Lea Thompson
From “Back to the Future” to “Howard the Duck,” Lea Thompson has been a staple in some major ‘80s hits! From acting to directing, she has made a big impact in Hollywood. Her daughter Zoey Deutch is also an actress and has been in movies like “Why Him?” and the Netflix film
Though we haven’t seen Thompson very much in recent years, she has been in the teenage drama “Switched at Birth” and has played a few one-off characters in some of our favorite shows like
James Spader
Speaking of Molly Ringwald, we can’t forget about James Spader! Though this actor got his start in the movie “Pretty in Pink,” he has done many great things since then. While he has been called tricky to work with, we can see his true artistic visions have paid off in some of our favorite characters.
You may have seen him in “The Office” and “Blacklist,” and he was even the voice of Ultron in the Marvel movies!
