Here's What The Kids From The Mighty Ducks Look Like Today

The misfit Mighty Ducks crew triple-deked their way into pop culture history, but you can't play pee-wee forever. Coach Bombay's ducklings are now all grown up, and not all of them stuck around in Hollywood. Here's what became of the Mighty Ducks cast. The role of championship-winning penalty scorer Charlie Conway was originally supposed to be played by future A-lister Jake Gyllenhaal. But he had to turn it down because his parents didn't want him missing out on months of school. So instead, Joshua Jackson stepped in for what was his first major role, and for some viewers, it's still the one he's best-known for today. Vancouver native Jackson has gone on to appear in a variety of films and TV shows since hanging up his Ducks jersey. He played the lead in 2008's Shutter, an American remake of a Thai horror film that scored an embarrassing 7 percent on Rotten Tomatoes. Luckily for him, critics have been kinder to his TV work. In the late 90s and early 2000s, he was unforgettable as Pacey on the iconic teen drama Dawson's Creek. Beginning in 2008, he played Peter on the mind-bending sci-fi series Fringe. His more recent appearances continue to earn him notice as a serious actor, including his time as Cole on the innovative Showtime series The Affair, which he's followed up with Hulu's literary adaptation Little Fires Everywhere.
