The Goonies Cast: Where Are They Now?

The Goonies may have debuted more than 30 years ago, but its legacy will live in the hearts of viewers forever.

The action-comedy film, directed by Richard Donner, hit theaters in June 1985 and follows the adventures of a group of kids from the Goon Docks area of Astoria, Oregon, who call themselves the Goonies. As their homes face foreclosure, the Goonies unite for one final weekend together — and discover a treasure map that changes everything.

Young actors like Sean Astin, Josh Brolin and Jeff Cohen shot to stardom thanks to the success of the quirky adventure movie, and still look back on their time filming The Goonies with love. Shortly after the cast reunited at Ke Huy Quan’s TCL Chinese Theatre imprint ceremony in February 2025, Warner Bros. announced that a The Goonies sequel was officially in the works with Steven Spielberg and Chris Columbus set to produce.

“They’re doing it. Whether we’re doing it or not is another story,” Corey Feldman said of the OG cast’s potential involvement during a group interview on Today in April 2025. “But I can tell you for sure, Spielberg and Chris Columbus have a recipe and they’re planning on something. We wish them well, and if they come to us, we’ll consider it at that time.”

Astin went on to add that Spielberg was the “sole reason [a sequel] hasn’t been made now because it hasn’t been right,” noting, “The fact that he is endorsing this next thing is why we know it’s gonna and it’s why it has ever chance to be spectacular.”
