She was in Twister! Then she married really well and is now a billionaire or something.
It’s like how Rayanne Graff from My So-Called Life is British nobility now.

Mara Wilson was a highly successful child actor. More than that, she's smart and was raised well. Last I heard, she's a writer. I've never heard anything scandalous about her.
Mara's book "Where Am I Now?" is great!

Okay, I just nearly fell off the fact of the earth googling Jason Patric (my 80s crush!) and there’s been no news about him since about 2014. Wow.
And I had no idea that Jackie Gleason was his grandfather!

Most of the SNL cast.
Yes, a handful like Fallon, Sandler, Murphy, Fey, and such made a name for themselves, but the vast majority never gained traction or are C list celebs at best.

Samantha Mathis should have been the next “it” girl after her debut film with Christian Slater in the 90s followed by dumping John Leguizamo for River Phoenix. She’s been a working actor in good films with stars like Winona Ryder, but she’s not the household name she was predicted to be.

Mini Driver She is still out there working. But I thought she would have had a bigger career.

You Must Remember This did an Erotic 80s podcast that was really interesting. One was in part about Sean Young. She was...complex.
Also, I just remembered Shannon Sossamon in Rules of Attraction. I loved that movie.
