HEY YOU GUYS! 80s cult classic, The Goonies, a story about a band of pre-teens who live in the "Goon Docks" neighbourhood of Astoria, Oregon attempt to save their homes from demolition, and in doing so, discover an old Spanish map that leads them on an adventure to unearth the long-lost fortune of One-Eyed Willie, a legendary 17th-century pirate turns 29 today!!!

To celebrate such an important birthday in TruffleShuffle's calendar we wanted to bring some Goonies-love to the blog. But since we've already shown you how to do the TruffleShuffle and discussed 5 Things You Didn't Know About The Goonies, I thought (with a Goonies sequel in the pipeline) we'd catch up with the some of the stars.... Come with us as we investigate what became of the cast of the 1985's The Goonies.

Sean Astin – Michael 'Mikey' Walsh

Sean Astin played the adventurous Mikey, who led the gang on their hunt for One-Eyed Willie's treasure, and his experience of quests stood him in good stead for his highest profile post-Goonies role, as Samwise Gamgee in The Lord of the Rings. As well as Hobbiting it up, Sean nabbed himself an Oscar nomination with his wife for their short film Kangaroo Court (1994), starred in 24, as well as other hit TV shows including My Name Is Earl and most recently became the voice for Raphael in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
