CAST members from a legendary 80s movie have begged film bosses for a sequel – having reunited 40 years later.
Many of the main actors were just kids at the time- and ultimately launched successful Hollywood careers.

The cast of The Goonies came together to support Ke Huy Quan, 53, as he received a coveted star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Speaking to Variety, the Oscar winner addressed whether a Goonies sequel could ever be made.
He said: “It’s one of the most asked questions in my life. I would love for it to happen.”
Representing The Goonies at the Walk of Fame ceremony were Corey Feldman, Josh Brolin, Kerri Green and Jeff Cohen – aka Mouth, Brand, Andy and Chunk.
Corey, 53, revealed he and co-star Sean Astin (who played Mikey) had been developing a possible sequel around a decade ago.
They pitched their idea to Richard Donner, who directed The Goonies and “seemed excited” by the concept.
However, he ultimately did not get on board, thinking it was “too expensive”.
Continuing, Corey added: “All I can say is, get us all together.
“Everybody is looking good. Sean’s looking good. Josh is looking good.
“We’re all looking good still, and we’re all alive. Goonies never say die…There’s hope.”
The family adventure movie followed a group of children attempting to save their homes from foreclosure.
After finding an old treasure map, they embark on an adventure to find One-Eyed Willy’s – a 17th century pirate – long missing fortune.
In the meantime, the kids face competition from a criminal family who are also pursuing the treasure.
Ke Huy Quan played the role of “Data” – a year on from his turn as “Short Round” in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.
Beginning in the early 2000s, he took a 19-year hiatus from acting.
This included some time working in a behind-the-scenes capacity.
He later won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor after starring in Everything Everywhere All At Once.
A year later, he took on a starring role in Marvel Comics TV series Loki.
