See the Cast of ‘Wild Things’ Then and Now

Released in 1998, 'Wild Things' was a campy and twisted erotic thriller following the exploits of two high school students who accuse their guidance counselor of a sex crime, but there's more to this story than meets the eye: corrupt cops, betrayal, Bill Murray as a hilarious lawyer, and loads of cash. The film received mixed reviews at the time of its release, but has become something of a cult classic in the years since. 16 years later, we revisit the cast of the film and see what they're up to now.

Kevin Bacon, Sergeant Ray Duquette

Then: Kevin Bacon played Sergeant Ray Duquette, who is investigating guidance counselor Sam Lombardo for sexual assault, but Duquette has his own sinister angle in this complex story.

Now: Since then, Bacon has appeared in films like 'Stir of Echoes,' 'Mystic River,' 'The Woodsman,' 'Frost/Nixon,' and 'X-Men: First Class.' He currently stars on the Fox thriller series 'The Following,' and has recently appeared in the films 'Crazy, Stupid, Love,' 'Jayne Mansfield's Car,' and 'R.I.P.D.'

Now: Richards went on to appear in the James Bond film 'The World Is Not Enough,' as well as 'Drop Dead Gorgeous,' 'Valentine,' 'Scary Movie 3,' and 'Love Actually.'

Neve Campbell, Suzie Marie Toller

Then: Neve Campbell played Suzie Marie Toller, a girl from a less privileged family who admits that she and Kelly made up the accusations about Sam for revenge -- but there's more to this story than she's letting on. Campbell was a major star in the 90s, with roles on 'Party of Five' and in the 'Scream' films.

Now: 'Party of Five' ended in 2000, and since then Campbell has appeared in the films 'When Will I Be Loved' and 'Reefer Madness,' and has guest-starred on 'The Simpsons' and 'Grey's Anatomy.'

Now: Russell went on to appear in 'The Believer,' 'The Box,' 'Spider-Man 3,' and reunited with Denise Richards in the indie film 'Jolene.' She's appeared in several TV films, including the recent Lifetime movie 'Liz and Dick,' and has guest-starred on 'Fringe' and 'Cold Case.'
