Dramas River Phoenix: His Autopsy, A Drug Vade Mecum
Television Detective Ricardo Tubbs: the Miami Corruption actor who fell into oblivion, chose a healthy life and had 11 children
In the 1980s, childhood was marked by some cute (and also terrifying)
dolls
that became tremendously famous for the film
The Gremlins
(1984), directed by
Joe Dante
(75), which became known in the cinema Bloody with
Piranha
(1978).
Two of its main leads became
teen idols.

Phoebe Cates
(58) was one of the spoiled girls of the time who a few years later
married Kevin Kline
(74) with whom she has formed one of the most stable marriages in Hollywood for more than three decades.
They have
two children,
Owen (31) and Greta (28).
Currently, Phoebe is retired from the movies and
runs a fashion store
in New York.

His male partner,
Zach Galligan
(58) has not had much luck as an actor despite his tenacity and sympathy.
He made his debut four decades ago in
Nothing Lasts Forever
opposite
Bill Murray
(71) and
Dan Aykroyd
(69), whose filming was overshadowed by the untimely death of John Belushi at the age of 33 due to an overdose.
In 1984 came the
peak of his career
with
The Gremlins,
for which he is still remembered today and for which he held the 45th position of the youth idols.
Emilio Estévez
(59) and
Kevin Bacon
(63)
also auditioned for the same role .
during filming
He had a crush on Phoebe Cates,
who was also a model at the time, but they never dated formally.

After that smash hit,
his popularity plummeted so much
that he was forced to accept endless series B products that have gone unnoticed both in film and on television.
He followed the advice of his parents and
moved away from Hollywood
to enroll in Columbia University in New York because they thought it would make him more financially stable.
However, the actor has always believed that this decision
cost him invisibility
in the mecca of cinema.

For this reason, he decided to opt for the academic side to be
a professor of declamation
at a school affiliated with the University of New York (NYC).
That impasse in Hollywood probably saved his life, as he has confessed on occasion, following the
death of River Phoenix
due to drugs.
In his spare time he often travels to England because he admires his culture, especially pop music.
In 2005
he married Ling Ingerick,
but they divorced five years later.
They had no children.
