Josh Gad Puts Together a Virtual Goonies Reunion!
You guys, if there is one person that is winning at quarantine, it’s Josh Gad. Not only has he given us the incredible shorts At Home With Olaf but he also blessed us with an amazing rendition “Gaston” during the Disney Family Singalong!
As if that weren’t enough, he’s responsible for putting together a virtual Goonies reunion with the original cast! Over the weekend, Gad, 39, shared the news on his social media accounts that he would be hosting a special Goonies reunion on his series, Reunited Apart, to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the beloved movie.
“There is one movie that defines my childhood. One movie that defines my personality,” the Frozen star began in a Twitter post shared on Sunday evening. “One movie that defines me. Tomorrow, please join me at 9 AM PT/12:00 PT EST in support of #TheCenterForDisasterPhilanthropy as I reunite the ENTIRE CAST of #TheGoonies.” You can see the original tweet below:

Gad shared the tweet along with a preview of the reunion special that featured himself and star Sean Austin. In the clip, Astin can be seen reciting the famous “Troy’s Bucket” monologue from the film!
Other stars of the film included Josh Brolin (Brand), Corey Feldman (Mouth), Kerri Green (Andy), Ke Huy Quan (Data), Martha Plimpton (Stef) and Jeff Cohen (Chunk). And guess what!? All of them appeared in Gad’s reunion!
And for your viewing pleasure, here is the entire reunion as posted on Josh Gad’s YouTube account:
As People tells us, in February Fox approved a pilot order for an untitled drama about students making a shot-for-shot remake of the film. Rumor has it that Donner and Spielberg will be involved in the project.
Another fantastic thing about the Goonies reunion is that its also being used to raise funds for the Center for Disaster Philanthropy. Visit there website to find out how you can give today!
