where is he now: Cute young C. Thomas Howell made his debut in the blockbuster, ET . Next came a series of minor triumphs (and disappointments), including playing the infamous Ponyboy, and sharing the screen with a whole slew of other hunky young actors, in The Outsiders . The boy has been busy since his blockbuster beginnings, and has collected quite a list of film roles. He's not a bad actor, either. And the man keeps working, with several films just last year under his belt. Look for him next in The Hitcher 2, another installment of the cult film The Hitcher. And by the way, he's still pretty dang cute.
