‘Dead Poets Society’ — See What The Poetic Prep School Boys Are Up To Now

James Waterston as Gerard Pitts

Fun fact: James, Ethan, and Robert co-founded a theater company called Malaparte. More recently, he appeared in the TV shows Flesh and Bone and Red Oaks.

The 48-year-old is also the son of Grace and Frankie star Sam Waterston and the half-brother of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them star Katherine Waterston.

Norman Lloyd as Headmaster Gale Nolan

Even at 102 years old, this actor is still with us! In fact, you’ve seen Norman in Trainwreck and In Her Shoes on the big screen and Modern Family on the small screen.

Kurtwood Smith as Mr. Perry

For many of the intervening years since Dead Poet Society, Kurtwood was a regular fixture on our screens as dad Red Forman on That ‘70s Show. Nowadays, a ton of smaller TV gigs later, the 73-year-old stars as Leslie Claret on the Amazon comedy-drama Patriot.

Robin Williams as John Keating

O Captain! Our Captain! Tragically, Robin died in 2014 at the age of 63, leaving behind a long and laudable filmography — with entries both comedic (e.g. Mrs. Doubtfire, Jumanji, Aladdin) and dramatic (e.g. Good Will Hunting, Patch Adams, One Hour Photo).
