Here’s What Happened To The Mighty Ducks
Who doesn’t want to fly like a Duck? In 2021 fans of the hit ice-hockey franchise got a special surprise: a Disney + reboot that included a big cast reunion. Several of the original kids, all now adults, joined Emilio Estevez’s Gordon Bombay for the new show. But what had they been up to in the meantime? And what about the ones who didn’t return for the reboot? Well, we’ve hunted down those Ducks to let you know...
20. Elden Henson as Fulton
Elden Henson was a big kid, and that helped him rise to fame. He played Fulton Reed in the The Mighty Ducks, and then another put-upon giant in the similarly named The Mighty in 1998. And he just went up and up from there. As an adult he played Pollux in the Hunger Games franchise and Foggy Nelson in the hit Daredevil series.
Henson now
Henson was one of the cast members who came back for the reunion, but The Mighty Ducks was a big part of his adult life before then too. He told TV Guide magazine in 2015, “I feel like I owe a lot of my career to being in those movies. What's funny is I still, more than anything, get recognized for The Mighty Ducks.”
19. Marguerite Moreau as Connie
Marguerite Moreau played Connie, whose last name was Moreau too! Marguerite told Time magazine in 2014 that her agent actually told her to lie to get the Ducks part, and tell the producers she was 13 rather than 14. She didn’t think for a moment she would get the role… but she did.
Moreau now
Moreau told Time that as soon as filming wrapped on the first Mighty Ducks “there was a collective feeling of having made something really special, and we were so excited to see it.” She went on to have a successful acting career; she has been in hits including Wet Hot American Summer and Grey’s Anatomy.
