Whatever happened to Chunk, Mikey and Sloth? Though it looks like Mikey, Data and the gang won't be breaking out the "booty traps" for a 'Goonies' sequel anytime soon -- director Richard Donner recently shot down the rumors (bastard!) -- we still haven't given up hope.
Just in case their services are required for a Part 2, we hunted down the original Goonies to find out what they're up to today.
Goonies': Where Are They Now?
Though it looks like Mikey, Data and the gang won't be breaking out the "booty traps" for a 'Goonies' sequel anytime soon -- director Richard Donner recently shot down the rumors (bastard!) -- we still haven't given up hope.
Just in case their services are required for a Part 2, we hunted down the original Goonies to find out what they're up to today.

Sean Astin
Now: After roles in the sports classic 'Rudy' and the gazillion-dollar-earning 'Lord of the Rings' trilogy, he's very much in demand. Recent gigs include a hilarious guest stint on a 'Rudy'-themed episode of 'My Name Is Earl,' the underdog sports movie 'The Final Season' and father to three kids with wife Christine.

Jeff Cohen
Then: Cohen did the rounds of '80s TV sitcoms ('Webster,' 'Facts of Life') before being tapped to play Lawrence "Chunk" Cohen, the pudgy, ice cream-loving, tall tale-telling Goonie who redeems himself by pledging devotion to the sweet deformity known as Sloth. ("I'm gonna take care of ya ... because I love ya.")

Jeff Cohen
Now: 'Goonies' was Cohen's only film role, but he never really left Chunk behind. As an undergrad at UC Berkeley, he ran for office (and won) on a "Chunk for President" platform and amused students by doing the Truffle Shuffle at football games. He's now a slimmed-down entertainment lawyer at Cohen & Gardner in L.A.

Josh Brolin
Then: The son of screen legend James Brolin, Josh made his acting debut in 'The Goonies.' As Brand Walsh, he reluctantly abandons working out to Cyndi Lauper music videos in order to join younger bro Mikey's treasure hunt -- and romance cheerleader Andy (Kerri Green) in the process.

Josh Brolin
Now: In addition to calling the gorgeous Diane Lane his wife, Brolin enjoyed a banner year as an actor in '07. He played assorted jerks in 'Planet Terror,' 'In the Valley of Elah' and 'American Gangster,' and earned raves for his antiheroic turn in the Coen brothers' 'No Country for Old Men.' Most recently, he starred as our 43rd president in Oliver Stone's Bush biopic 'W.'

Kerri Green
Then: She made her movie debut as Andy, a foxy cheerleader whose piano skills prove helpful to the gang and whose tonsil-hockey skills prove enjoyable to Brand. Ensuing roles as John Candy's daughter in 'Summer Rental' and Corey Haim's crush in 'Lucas' cemented her '80s teen idol status.

Kerri Green
Now: After taking a break to study art at Vassar, she returned to acting in the early '90s. In 1999, she wrote and directed the critically lauded but little-seen drama 'Bellyfruit,' and in 2001 made her last credited acting appearance on 'Law and Order: SVU.' She currently resides in L.A. with her husband and kids.

Corey Feldman
Then: By the time he played obnoxious Clark "Mouth" Devereaux (aka the Goonie you'd most like to smack upside the head), Feldman was a show-biz pro, having co-starred in two 'Friday the 13th' movies, 'Gremlins,' 'Fox and the Hound' (he voiced Copper, the hound) and as a series regular on 'Bad News Bears.'
