Recently, I used to be watching Season 2 of The White Lotus (for at the least the fourth time) and seen a verrrrrrry acquainted actor within the first few episodes.
Alongside the enduring Tanya McQuoid (performed by Jennifer Coolidge) was Greg Hunt, a dude with a reasonably recognizable face — however for the lifetime of me, I could not pinpoint the place I knew him from!
Enter ye olde IMDb — I tracked down the actor’s identify, and voilà: It turned out to be Jon Gries (aka Rico Dynamite from the 2004 teen traditional Napoleon Dynamite!).
This bought me occupied with different teen film actors, and what they seem like now and what initiatives they have been concerned with nowadays. So, listed below are some stars of widespread teen films again within the day vs. in the present day:
