Which ’80s Heartthrobs Have Aged Like Vintage Vinyl?
Wil Wheaton
Wil Wheaton wasn’t just another teen actor in the 1980s. He starred alongside River Phoenix in the coming-of-age classic “Stand By Me,” but it was his role as Wesley Crusher on “Star Trek: The Next Generation” that beamed him into pop culture. While some fans debated Wil’s merits (and wardrobe choices), Wil embraced his inner geek.
Today, he’s a successful writer, voice actor, and champion of all things nerdy. From hosting online shows to advocating for gamers, Wil proves that sometimes, boldly going where no teen idol has gone before can lead to a truly awesome career.
