Your Favorite Stars Of The '80s, Where Are They Now?
Sean Astin – 48

Sean Astin was not new to the screens when he acted in the Lord of the Rings trilogy as Samwise Gamji. However, his first appearance in The Goonies didn’t do as well as the trilogy did in exhibiting his superb acting skills. Interestingly, Astin had to gain 35 to 40 pounds to play the role of Samwise and he also had a bad experience on set. While filming the scene where he runs into a lake, he accidentally stepped on a shard of glass and had to be rushed to the hospital. We hope he had injury insurance!
