“Police Academy” 38 years later: what the actors of this famous comedy film look like today (13 photos)
I invite you to take a look at how the celebrities who once played the most striking and memorable characters in a series of comedy films about cops have changed. 
Who hasn’t seen at least once one of the parts of the film “Police Academy”? The cult comedy was released back in 1984, but it is still loved by many people for its sincerity and abundance of hilarious jokes. At one time, the film was a real box office hit. It was being taken from video stores at an astonishing rate. Of course, everyone was waiting for new adventures of colorful and positive cadets.
38 years have passed since the release of the first part of “Police Academy”. A total of 7 films were made (filming lasted from 1984 to 1994). Over such a decent period of time, the actors who played their favorite characters have changed significantly. Some continued their acting careers, while others tried themselves in a new role and never returned to big roles.
