‘Christmas Vacation’ actors then vs. now celebrating 35 years
1
This year’s tradition of watching Christmas Vacation with the family will have a bit more meaning than usual. 2024 marks the 35th anniversary of the John Hughes’ holiday classic.
Released on December 1st, 1989, the film performed well at the box office (especially for a Christmas-themed picture.) The movie grossed over $71 million on a budget of $25 million. We all know the success it’s had since.
Now that we’re celebrating 35 years of Griswold debauchery, we figured we’d check in and see how the cast is doing. Enjoy these 1989 vs. current day pics!
