Papillon Soo - Full Metal Jacket

It’s okay if you don’t recognize her name or picture right off the bat, because you’ve probably heard Papillon Soo quoted throughout pop culture so often you don’t realize it’s her. The model only made a brief foray into acting during her ongoing career, but it counted in ways that paid off for her big time.

Victims of the 2008 Writer’s Strike that Studios Need Reminding About

By Ross Tyson | May 8, 2023

Writers for many Hollywood studios are on strike, with the Writers Guild of America picketing outside many major studios for compensation from streaming projects, higher wages (most have part or full-time jobs besides writing), and protection from the artificial intelligence boom that’s currently plaguing the literary and film worlds.

She Played ‘Christine’ in Drag Me to Hell. See Alison Lohman Now at 43.

Alison Lohman - Drag Me To Hell

When one role in a horror film leads the late great Roger Ebert to name you a scream queen on the level of Shelley Duval in The Shining, where is there to go after? For Alison Lohman, the answer was surprising, with the actress choosing to eschew the Hollywood life not long after staring in the Sam Raimi hit Drag Me To Hell in 2009.

Efren Ramirez - Napoleon Dynamite

Kids these days will never know how impossible it was to go five feet in public without seeing a Vote for Pedro shirt somewhere. The plain red font became iconic, and Pedro himself rose to stardom in turn as actor Efren Ramirez took off in Hollywood.

She Played ‘Jen Yu’ in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. See Zhang Ziyi Now at 44.

Zhang Ziyi - Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon

Zhang Ziyi is one of the most prolific foreign actresses, so it’s understandable if you don’t recognize her name right away if it comes to Hollywood films.

She Played ‘Adriana’ on The Sopranos. See Drea de Matteo Now at 51.

Drea de Matteo - The Sopranos

Some people find their niche in life early on, fitting into that space that fits them just right. Drea de Matteo is one of Hollywood’s finest examples of finding that spot early on and making it into a successful career, starting out in HBO’s critical darling The Sopranos before making her way through every crime drama possible within her first decade of working.

She Played ‘Carol Seaver’ on Growing Pains. See Tracey Gold Now at 53.

By Ross Tyson | April 27, 2023

Tracey Gold - Growing Pains

Tracey Gold is a poster girl for the child star traumatized by Hollywood. The difference between her and so many others though, is that she was able to turn around and make a full recovery, now advocating for others going through the same. In addition to her work as a speaker on eating disorders and mental health, what is the Growing Pains star up to today?

He Played ‘George McFly’ in Back to the Future. See Crispin Glover Now at 59.

By Ross Tyson | April 24, 2023

Crispin Glover - Back to the Future

Crispin Glover might be most known for his pasty, strange appearance, usually playing oddballs in small roles through the eighties and nineties. While he’s best known for roles like George McFly, Glover has made a pretty lengthy career out of playing the weird dude, despite some studio setbacks and drama.

She Played ‘Danielle’ in The Girl Next Door. See Elisha Cuthbert Now at 40.

By Ross Tyson | April 24, 2023

Elisha Cuthbert - The Girl Next Door

Elisha Cuthbert was the first crush for many teens in the 2000s, making her massive breakthrough in the sex comedy The Girl Next Door and headlining shows and films ever since. Though she has been quiet lately, Elisha is still in the Hollywood game and going strong.

She Played ‘Janet’ on Three’s Company. See Joyce DeWitt Now at 73.

By Ross Tyson | April 21, 2023

Joyce DeWitt - Three's Company

Having three roommates seemed crazy when Three’s Company premiered in 1976, but now that we’re splitting rent between five or so people at a time the show serves as a nostalgic reminder for everything lost. Joyce DeWitt is a part of that nostalgia, playing the role of Janet in the hit sitcom. While she’s not in the main spotlight as much anymore, she’s still keeping busy almost fifty years later.

He Played ‘Napoleon’ in Napoleon Dynamite. See Jon Heder Now at 45.

By Ross Tyson | April 21, 2023

Jon Heder - Napoleon Dynamite

“This is pretty much the worst video ever made” is what a large number of audiences said after seeing Napoleon Dynamite in theaters, but the line wasn’t an accurate summation of the film it’s from. Jon Heder, the actor behind the film’s title character, was poised for comedic supremacy in the mid-2000s, embodying the awkward outsider character perfectly. So why is he a seeming outsider in Hollywood these days?

She Played ‘Shauni’ on Baywatch. See Erika Eleniak Now at 53.

By Ross Tyson | April 17, 2023

Erika Eleniak - Baywatch

Despite how big a show may get, it’s not a guarantee for everyone on the cast when it comes to ongoing fame. Erika Eleniak of Baywatch fame can attest to that, with her role in the show making a noticeable split in her career trajectory.
