The 1992 movie 'The Mighty Ducks' not only spawned two theatrical sequels and an animated TV series, but when the Disney-owned Anaheim franchise joined the NHL in 1993, they were named the Mighty Ducks in honor of the film. Take that, 'Big Green.'

'The Mighty Ducks' starred Emilio Estevez as a lawyer who is sentenced to coach a youth hockey team after being convicted of drunk driving. Because you need a lot of players to fill a hockey roster, the film's cast featured a metric butt-ton of young actors. See what they're up to these days now.

Then: In ‘The Mighty Ducks,’ Jackson played Charlie Conway, the leader and heart of the team. It was the first big movie role for the Canadian 12-year-old, who is best-known as Pacey on ‘Dawson’s Creek.’

Now: For the last five years, Jackson has starred on ‘Fringe.’ In 2012, the 35-year-old was also part of the ‘Lay the Favorites’ ensemble cast. He’s been in a relationship with actress Diane Kruger since 2006.
