Cast
Actor Character Claim to Fame
Sean Astin Matt Foster Famous actor, from Mikey in The Goonies to the plucky title character in Rudy, from Adam Sandler's rival Bill in Click to Winona Ryder's doomed love interest on "Stranger Things," he will always be best known as Samwise in The Lord of the Rings movies. 
Bruce Campbell Carl Greig Beloved by sci-fi/fantasy geeks everywhere, this strong-chinned guy was the star of Evil Dead and "Briscoe County, Jr.," among much else. Does a great many cameos, like in the Spider-Man movies. 
Stacy Keach Bill Foster Best known as the hard-boozing "Mike Hammer," Keach has played Hollywood's best roles. His flat, mustachioed, tough-guy face is probably already familiar, whether it's in Up in Smoke, The Bourne Legacy, or Escape from L.A.
Suzanne Turner Meg Foster (but not THAT Meg Foster) Was Capt. McPherson in Dreamkiller and was a ticket- taker on a couple episodes of "Lost." 
John James Will Langley AKA John James Anderson, was Jeff Colby on "The Colbys" and "Dynasty."
