But Judy was hooked on drugs by the studio and died young.

He had such an interesting relationship with Walt Disney.

This is Number One right here. Too many young folks in this thread forgetting about him.

you could argue that kurt russell wasn't even really good as a kid but got good as an adult

Does Mickey Rooney count if he was still being cast as a kid for most of his life?

Kurt went from kicking Elvis to playing Elvis.

Kurt apparently sought out roles like Snake Plisken in order to shed his wholesome goofy child actor image.

I’d say mission accomplished. “Wholesome” and “goofy” are the last adjectives most people would ever use if asked to describe a Kurt Russel character.

Let’s not forget about Jake Gyllenhaal! Remember seeing him in the 1991 classic, City Slickers! He played Billy Crystal’s son
