Many Disney Channel Original Movies hold a solid place in most 90s kid’s hearts. They symbolise simpler times—that is, before the stars could make us hate them by going on a Twitter rant. Disney Channel provided us with many of the best television experiences of our childhoods—some of which hold up over time, while others don’t. 

Sometimes the old movies just randomly pop into your head, and leaves you wondering “what happened to these stars?” Just as you grew up, so did the stars of your favourite childhood movies. Here is a list of twenty former Disney Channel movie actors and where they are today. 

Lindsey Haun

Lindsey Haun is still acting and has been in "True Blood" as Hadley Hale. She also hosts a morning talk show online, called "Nick and Lindsey Morning Show".
