  • WTF Happened To This Celebrity? - The JoBlo series that examines the careers of stars and filmmakers who may have fallen out of the spotlight, and tells where they are now!
    In the 1990s, Christian Slater was at the height of his fame thanks to memorable movies like HEATHERS, TRUE ROMANCE and BROKEN ARROW, but he also gained notoriety after some trouble with the law. The next couple of decades became filled with failed TV series and direct-to-video movies, before a recent resurgence with the hit show MR. ROBOT.

    I met Christian Slater many years back in London after he did his play One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest. He was very friendly and he signed a copy of Heathers saying, "Wow, old school". A lovely guy

    True Romance was by far his best role, and one of my all time favorite movies. He was perfect for it. He always shines where there's heavy dialogue, which made me wish he had continued to do more work in Tarantino films. He seems perfect for that style of writing.

    He's had a remarkable career and life. It's amazing the breaks he's gotten in the film industry - with all of his drug and legal trouble (and box office bombs). A lot of people must have gone to bat for him to get past the roadblocks. He's certainly a survivor.

    Really enjoyed your video, it was like revisiting my youth! Heathers is still my all time favorite movie. I had the pleasure of meeting Mr Slater twice. The first time back in 2003 at the costume store I worked at. He was very polite and didn't mind me gushing about my love of Heathers and True Romance. Then in 2017 I was a background actor in 3 episodes of Mr Robot. He was very professional but also super friendly saying hello to everyone and usually getting things perfect on the first take. I can see why he has been non stop working for this many years.

    I got to hang out with Christian Slater a few times in the 90s and 00s. A friend made some custom jewelry for him. We would hang out up at my friend's shop, at my friend's house and a sports bar we used to go to at times. He is a very interesting guy. I have met a lot of famous people, and he is one of the most memorable for me. He is very intelligent, knowledgeable and has charisma through the roof. He never used drugs around me, but he was usually pretty sauced on alcohol. Myself and my friend that introduced us would smoke cannabis around him, but he would stay away from the smoke and just drink. He said he used to smoke a lot in high school, but really did not like to do it since then. He has definitely had his ups and downs, but to me he always seemed just like one of the guys. Good memories, good times.

He was just the nicest person you could ever meet, and was humble enough to realise that the general public, are the ones that pay to go and see the movies.
