Over the Top Cast Then and Now (1987 vs 2024)

In a stunning retrospective, the cast of the iconic 1987 film “Over the Top” is back in the spotlight, revealing the passage of time and the bittersweet nature of nostalgia. As we approach 2024, the stark contrast between the film’s stars then and now is both illuminating and heartbreaking.

Leading the pack is Sylvester Stallone, who, at 41 during the film’s release, is now a venerable 78. His enduring legacy as an action icon continues to resonate with fans worldwide. Meanwhile, Greg “Magic” and Schwarz, once a youthful 35, now stands at 72, showcasing the relentless march of time.

Tragic news accompanies this nostalgic journey. Notably, Cleave Dean, who was just 32 in 1987, passed away in 2011 at the age of 57. Similarly, Robert Loia, aged 57 during filming, left us in 2015, and Rick Zumwalt, who was 33 then, succumbed to illness in 2003 at 51. The film’s wrestling legend, Terry Funk, also recently passed away in 2023 at 79, leaving a void in the hearts of many.

The retrospective shines a light on other cast members, like Allan Graf, now 71, and Jimmy Keegan, who has aged gracefully to 61. David Mendenhall, once a bright-eyed 16, is now 53, embodying the swift passage of years. Bruce Way, who was 43, is now an impressive 80.

This poignant look back at “Over the Top” serves as a reminder of both the fleeting nature of fame and the enduring impact of cinema on our lives. As we reflect on the film and its cast, we are left with a powerful sense of nostalgia mixed with the stark reality of time’s passage. The legacy of “Over the Top” lives on, but so do the memories of those we have lost along the way.
