Where Are They Now?
Snakkle Celebrates The 27th Anniversary Of Hit Comedy Good Morning, Vietnam And The Funnymen Who Busted Our Guts—Where Are They Now?
Everyone thinks they’re a comedian. Or at least behind the ranks in Saigon, they do. Adrian Cronauer is flown in from the Isle of Crete, to deliver the news and provide the much-needed morale boost for the American troops. But there’s a war at the radio station when Adrian’s gut-busting, easily delivered quips fail to make some of his superiors laugh. Things get political when Adrian learns hard lessons about whose side he’s really on during the Vietnam War. It’s been 27 years since this bunch of wisecracks teamed up for Good Morning, Vietnam, Snakkle finds out where they are now! By Brittany Carson

Forest Whitaker—Now
After Good Morning, Vietnam, the multitalented and creative actor, director and producer played a captive British soldier in The Crying Game (1992), which proved Whitaker to be a powerful presence on the screen. After some compelling supporting performances, his role in The Last King of Scotland (2006) as dictator Idi Amin won him an Academy Award for Best Actor. In 2012, Whitaker married the actress Keisha Nash (who he met while filming Blow Away in 1994) and they have four children: Ocean, Autumn, Sonnet and True. Talk about creative!
