“The Little Rascals” Cast Are All Grown Up! See Where the Stars Are Now 30 Years After the Movie's Release

'The Little Rascals' premiered on Aug. 5, 1994

In 1994, The Little Rascals introduced a new generation to the wacky antics of the gang. The original 1920s short film series Our Gang became an instant hit, and throughout the decades, numerous films and TV shows have been made about the group.

Nowadays, the most memorable entry in the franchise is the 1994 feature film. While it was a moderate box office success upon release, the family comedy became a household staple through the rental market and on TV.

The movie has become a bona fide classic, thanks partly to cameos by entertainment veterans like Mel Brooks, Daryl Hannah and Reba McEntire, but mainly for the hilarious child actors who portrayed the rascals.

Thirty years later, the kids are all grown up. From a future Fresh Prince of Bel-Air cast member to a prominent voice actor, here's where the cast of The Little Rascals are now.
