Brandon “Bug” Hall is lucky to have found his first love in “The Little Rascals.” We’re not talking about Darla, but the love for acting. After the movie wrapped he appeared on-screen in movies like “The Big Green”, “The Stupids”, and “Honey, We Shrunk Ourselves.” Fortunately, he still holds a certain spot in Hollywood, unlike some childhood actors that have faded away.
Asked about “The Little Rascals”, he said, “it’s the reason that I found what I want to do in life. I owe everything good in my life to that movie.”
Brittany Ashton Holmes's Career
One might argue that "The Little Rascals" movie would have served as a perfect platform to propel Brittany Ashton Holmes to stardom. Curiously though, she did not want anything to do with it. After the movie became a success, she didn’t return to acting. Instead, she traveled around the world.
In retrospect, Brittany shared on MySpace, “I was [an] actress when I was little and did this movie called The Little Rascals. It’s, like, really embarrassing to watch and I don’t want to act anymore”. She’s now happily married (not to Alfalfa or Waldo) and pursuing a degree in political science.
Bug Hall's as Alfalfa
In such a lovable gang as the He-Man Women Haters Club, Alfalfa stood out as a resistant member of sorts, and he courageously pursued Darla, despite the objection of his pals. And from this small act of defiance against his troupe of friends, all of the movie’s action spilled out.
Bug Hall made Alfalfa’s character a strong favorite, and a memorable one, too. As a character, he was as true as a child could ever be. Brave, foolish, young, and adorable, with a winning smile and the cutest wayward hairstyle.
Heather Karasek as Jane
If Darla was the queen of the movie, then Heather Karasek’s role as Jane was among the starlets that orbited around her. Heather Karasek looked beautiful under her corn-colored curly hair.
It is so amusing how such lovely girls could be the target of detestation by the gang of rascals. They would balk at the sight of their clubhouse. However, the signage would soon change to “Women Welcome” towards the end, when love would finally cross over.
Heather Karasek's Career
It was natural to expect to see more of Heather Karasek after "The Little Rascals." In fact, fans might have demanded to see and know more about the little princess growing up.
Ironically, however, she prefers to stay behind the scenes. Nowadays, you can see her creative mind on the screen in her work as a costume designer. Her designs have been featured in film and TV more than 30 times. A far cry from her adorable Little Rascals days!
