13. Louis Gossett, Jr.
While he may have won over female audiences with his Oscar-winning turn in 1982’s An Officer and a Gentleman, Louis Gossett, Jr. will forever be known to eighties kids as the hard-nosed leader of a rogue flight squadron out to save a young boy’s father in Iron Eagle. Of course, his prosthetic-laden turn in Enemy Mine opposite Dennis Quaid is also fondly remembered by sci-fi fans. Sadly, Louis Gossett, Jr.’s career pretty much ended when 1990 rolled around. While he is still acting, you’d be hard pressed to find any of his recent roles you’d recognize.
