The Goonies

MARTHA PLIMPTON: LONG TIME NO SEE!

Martha Plimpton was a hot commodity as a rebellious teen in the 80’s. The Goonies made her a star and the late River Phoenix was her boyfriend for a few years. She’s had a busy career on stage and screen since then, but we don’t see her a lot of her because she lives part-time in London. Longtime activist Martha DID show up with her two adorable dogs to picket Warner Brothers yesterday with other SAG-AFTRA strikers. AND she has a new miniseries for HBO called The Regime, coming out in 2024. No doubt she’s home celebrating today because the strike is OVER!!!

KE HUY QUAN CANNOT ESCAPE THE GOONIES

Before he filmed Everything Everywhere All At Once, Oscar winner Ke Huy Quan was best known for being a Goonie – and now he’s headed back to his roots. The 1985 film The Goonies– about a group of misfit boys having a wild adventure – is still a cult favorite. There’s been talk about a sequal for years, and now there’s actually a concrete plan. The concept is that the original Goonies, including Ke, Josh Brolin, and Corey Feldman, wind up living in the same Oregon neighborhood where the original action took place. But this time it’s their KIDS who have to fight the bad guys. As with the original, Steven Spielberg is the brains behind the sequel. Depending on scheduling, the plan is to start production in early 2024.
