There's something truly special with Hollywood celebrities that have been in the industry in the 80s and 90s era. Sure, we do have great icons today—but nothing beats the nostalgic feeling that hits whenever we see some veteran actors on-screen once again, especially when they are already in old age.

These two decades were definitely one of the most amazing ones in the entertainment industry (especially the 90s!)—the fashion trends were so incredible that they have been making a comeback at present time, the music produced was timeless, and we were fed enough teen dramas for our hopeless romantic hearts. It's no secret that the era of the 80s and 90s launched and introduced us to some of the most legendary actors that have ever graced our screens.

From Rachel Aniston to Winona Ryder—a lot of celebrities here acquired their breakthrough rules that cemented their reputation in the industry. Some may have already hidden their present lives from the spotlight, but there are still a lot who stuck around and are still active in Hollywood.

But it's not only the younger actors that were gifted to us from the glitz and glamour world of entertainment—this era also highlighted the talents of older celebrities that started way back in the 60s and 70s. They may have started earlier in the industry, but in the last two decades of the 20th century, that's when their popularity peaked.

If you still remember some of them, are you curious about what they look like now and how different they were back then? Scroll down and see some of our favorite celebrities from the 80s-90s and find out what they look like at present time!
