Not many from the UK have made an established foothold in Hollywood as quickly as Claire Forlani has. The British actress made a low-key debut in the early nineties before working her way up through both indie comedy hits like Mallrats and big-time romantic dramas like Meet Joe Black alongside All-American Stepdad Brad Pitt.
She hit hard and hit fast at the end of the nineties, but where has she gone since?

Fans of Battlestar Galactica will know Dirk Benedict as Lieutenant Starbuck, whereas fans of the A-Team will remember him as Templeton ‘Faceman’ Peck.

The Sandlot has become a childhood classic, reminiscent of summer days spent running around the neighborhood. But if there’s one stand-out character we all remember, who wasn’t part of the gang, it’s Wendy Peffercorn. The lifeguard of Michael "Squints" Palledorous dreams was played by Marley Shelton.

You can’t list the best family sitcoms of the 80s and not mention Family Ties. It’s where most of us fell in love with Michael J. Fox for the first time. But in later seasons, there was a character that definitely made us tune in every week. The introduction of actor Scott Valentine in season four was a smart move, and his character helped capture the female demographic.

This is probably going to be a really deep cut for the younger readers, though there was that strange resurgence in Mr. Robot but that’s another thing entirely.
Andrea Elson was known for her work on Alf, which is distinguishable for having what is probably the darkest possible ending for a comedy about an alien puppet. We’re talking about Andrea Elson first though, so we’ll get there.

Patricia Charbonneau has one of the most baffling uncredited appearances in cinema history, especially with it being one of her most notable parts in a mainstream film.
The actress would appear as Linda Garcia in Robocop 2, but fans of her in the role would scramble for a name. So where did she end up in all this mystery?

Kelly McGillis flew through everyone’s danger zone with her breakout role in the 1986 US propaganda film disguised as a blockbuster Top Gun. Making a massive splash as Charlie, the flight instructor and love interest to Maverick (other than Goose), where has the actress ended up these days?

If you like Bubba Gump shrimp, you have Mykelti Williamson’s character from Forrest Gump to thank. Well, not technically, but that was part of Benjamin Buford “Bubba” Blue’s storyline from the popular 1994 film.
Still working in the industry, let’s take a look at what Mykelti Williamson has been up to.

Rachel Ticotin Straus is an American actress known for her work in both television and film.

As much of an issue as the nepo-baby trend is in Hollywood, it’s good to note there is a spectrum of actors in that category that range from cashing in to true love of the medium. Jennifer Jason Leigh falls into the latter category with those like Nic Cage and Maya Hawke, thankfully.

If anyone has a more polar opposite filmography in their debut year than Dominique Swain, please let me know because this one is WILD. With a rapid rise onto the acting scene after an early start to her career, Dominique took Hollywood by storm in the late 90s and is still making films today. Whether that’s a good thing isn’t for me to say.
