Missing Celebrities

Post by orestes. »

I got inspired by the Defrost Disney post to start a topic on celebs MIA or ones that you just don't see much or at all on the screen anymore.

Two that I'll add to the list are:

Joe Pesci - Joe hasn't made a movie since Lethal Weapon 4 in 1998! About two years ago I wondered where he went but I was relieved to find out he was still alive. I have heard he is now focusing on music.

Rick Moranis - He hasn't done much in a while although he hasn't disappeared like Joe Pesci. (ex. Brother Bear) From what I hear he has started his own production company so that might take a way a lot of his time and he is busy with his family. (His wife died in 1991 I believe)

Any more to add?

Herbert Lom: Aside from playing a small part in one mini-series last year, this guy hasn't been in anything since the last Pink Panther film in 1993. I hope he makes a cameo in "The Pink Panther" with Steve Martin.

This is going to sound ridiculous but... Helen Hunt. I don't remember her making a movie since early 2001. She was on a talk show sometime recently, maybe this year, but she looked so bad that I don't think she could make another movie.

Yeah that's right Helen Hunt hasn't been around much in a while. The last movie I remember her in was 'Curse of the Jade Scorpion'. Apparently she did a couple more after that but I don't remember them.

I have another one, Jodie Foster. She's still making movies I hear but I haven't seen any since 2002's 'Panic Room'. Actually looking at her filography on IMDb it looks like she hasn't done as much as I thought she did. Since 1994's 'Maverick' (one of my all-time faves she's only released 6 movies.

Jodie's latest movie, "Flightplan" is from Touchstone...I think.

As an actor he seemed to disappear but I remember after movies he had his own show and then he disappeared again. According to IMDb he is/was on '60 Minutes II' as a correspondant.

anyways I can't think of anymore right now. I was going to say Billy Crystal after seeing him on an episode of 'All in the Family' last night but he hasn't disappeared... just slowed down it seems like.

Went to one of the local comedy clubs tonight and one of the comics did a great impersonation of Grodin.
