Crocodile Dundee
When Crocodile Dundee came out in 1986, it became a box office hit. Unsurprisingly, they made Crocodile Dundee into a very successful franchise. Perhaps, the success had to do with the amazing actress Linda Kozlowski who played Sue Charlton, or maybe it was Paul Hogan as the Australian crocodile hunter! Either way, the three films have become classics that we will not be forgetting for a long time. Now, that it’s been more than three decades, we thought we would take a look back at our favorite stars. Let’s see where their lives have taken them since the film!
An American reporter is completely taken by the legendary, Crocodile Dundee. In fact she’s so intrigued by the unique character that she decides to bring him back with her to the great United States of America. Are you following? Or do you remember this from back in the day? If you do, then go ahead and start checking out the characters that you probably haven’t thought about in at least a decade. Anyway, where were we? Ah, right, Crocodile Dundee. He’s completely taken aback by what he sees in the Big Apple; New York City is not anything like he could have ever imagined.
While the first Crocodile Dundee was in production, many weren’t sure if the film would be a success. The movie was given a low budget, and it aimed with caution at an American audience. But the box office seemed to dispel those fears and everyone felt quite relieved thereafter. The success of the first movie brought about the inspiration to create another one and then another one after that. For the true fans of the Dundee series, there was always the hope that the movie series would just continue going and going. But it wasn’t just in America that the movie was making the big time.
Some people don’t know that Paul Hogan actually earned himself a Golden Globe award under the title, “Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy”. We shouldn’t be surprised seeing as his performance was a sterling one.
Now enough of this chatting about the stars as we remember them. Let’s take a stroll down memory lane and take a look at where these Crocodile Dundee stars are now. Let’s get into this!
John Meillon
First up is John Meillon who played Dundee’s sidekick, Wally. Of course, we all know that this actor also played Wally in the sequel. However, playing Wally in Crocodile Dundee II was one of his last acting credits. Unfortunately, he passed away just a year later. Although, he was known for more than just Crocodile Dundee. Meillon was celebrated for his work in theater as well.
John Meillon
Ritchie Singer
Now, when it comes to Ritchie Singer, he’s pretty much a veteran in Hollywood. Of course, you probably know he was Con in Crocodile Dundee. However, he was only in the first film not the second two. Anyway, before Crocodile Dundee Singer was only credited for three roles in the film Bliss and shows Palace of Dreams and The Story of Johnny O’Keefe. After that, things picked up!

Mark Blum
You know Mark Blum is a great actor because in Crocodile Dundee we totally hate him because he played that sleazy editor named Richard. Wow, we almost forgot how Richard proposed to Sue in the film! Even though he was obnoxious, we see how they needed his character for the plot. Well, back to the star’s career…
Mark Blum

David Gulpilil
Surely, you recall that David Gulpilil played Neville Bell in Crocodile Dundee. This Australian actor and traditional dancer is still most well-known for that famous role. He continued to land special Aborigine parts from this. He even won the Member of the Order of Australia award in 1978 because of his devotion to the arts and portraying his Aboriginal people. Unfortunately, not everything has been perfect in his life since the film.
David Gulpilil

This was back in 2011 but he got released after a year and continued acting.

He did also play Reggie Muddle in Mr. Reliable, a 1996 Australian movie. For the most part though, he decided to leave Hollywood behind.
Gerry Skilton
Jonathan Banks
Out of all the Crocodile Dundee stars, Banks probably became the most successful after the franchise. Actually, you may have forgotten that Jonathan Banks played Milos in the Crocodile Dundee movies.

Alright you most likely forgot Aida Turturro’s small role in the third Dundee film. That’s because now this actress has become a huge star. Yes, we will get to her iconic role as Tony Soprano’s sister Janice from HBO’s The Sopranos, but just wait. Who knew this actress who had small roles like the prostitute in What About Bob? and as Jean Ferraro in Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles would become a household name?

Now, he continues to perform on Broadway and in a cabaret show he started.
Hechter Ubarry
Paul Hogan
Once Paul Hogan made his onscreen debut with Crocodile Dundee, it seemed like he was destined to become a star. Yes, he even got to star in all three films. Even Hogan knew the risks of being such a big star with a franchise. From the franchise he has become a cultural icon and starred in some commercials. He joked about being a one-hit wonder when he accepted the Longford Lyell Award. Well, maybe you already know a bit of the scandals he has faced.
Paul Hogan
Paul Hogan Now
You may have expected this hit role to lead to others. However, he’s dealt with some personal scandals about tax evasion and off shore accounts that tarnished his reputation.

Maria Antoinette Rogers
Dianne Crittenden
It takes a lot of people by surprise when they find out that Dianne Crittenden was actually the casting director for Crocodile Dundee. Why is it so surprising?

Dianne Crittenden
Nick McKinless
This actor wasn’t more than a thug in Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles, but did you know that he’s actually a Greek god? Well not exactly. He was in Justice League which was a role that had him eating 40 cans of tuna a week, wow!
Nick McKinless

In Crocodile Dundee II, Vazquez was the bodyguard for Rico. Nowadays he’s not just a credited actor, the New Yorker is a teacher, a producer, screenwriter and director too. You might have seen him in Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Sex and the City, Girls and Gotham.
Alberto Vazquez
Susie Essman
It might not have been a big role, but not everyone can play the part of a tour guide, right? Susie Essman is perhaps better loved as Susie Greene in HBO’s Curb Your Enthusiasm where she’s Jeff’s wife. But if you’re tired of seeing her on the screen you can catch her book, What Would Susie Say: Bullsh*t Wisdom About Love, Life and Comedy?
Susie Essman
Tatyana Ali
Yeah she was Park Girl in Crocodile Dundee II, but don’t forget that she was also Ashley from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. This successful actor played Roxanne in the all-time classic, The Young and the Restless.
Tatyana Ali
Morgan O’Neill
We can’t get enough of Morgan O’Neill’s super strong Australian accent, can we? This multi-talented actor played Matt in Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles but now has some impressive titles under his belt. Some of those titles include, The Factory, Drift, Solo, and The Factory. In recent years he has moved to writing and other work that doesn’t involve standing in front of the cameras.
Morgan ONeill
Gus Mercurio
He was Frank in Crocodile Dundee II, but he was actually a professional boxer during an important part of his life.

If anyone knows about pulling in awards, we can hand that to Marilyn Sokol who’s been the recipient of an Obie, Bistro and an Emmy. She’s made a lot of guest appearances on a number of shows, with some being Sex and the City, Difficult People and Broad City. Crocodile Dundee was just one part of her successful career.
Marilyn Sokol
Jim Holt
So the fact is that he isn’t actually Australian, but how many of us have gotten his accent mixed up? He’s played parts all over the show, including those in Crocodile Dundee II, The Prince & Me II: The Royal Wedding, The Monkey’s Mask and Twelfth Night. But most people don’t know that this family man is actually a magician too.
Jim Holt
Colin Quinn
Isn’t it great that Colin Quinn is still active and doing great? If you’re an Adam Sandler fan then there’s a great chance you’ve seen him around. When it came to Crocodile Dundee II, Quinn was just an onlooker at the mansion. This star has made us laugh in so many ways and we’ll never forget his time on SNL.
Colin Quinn
Shanyn Asmar
Do you remember Claire from Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles? She’s played different roles in different shows and you might not know about all of them.. There’s The Sleepover Club, Neighbors and Romper Stomper.
Shanyn Asmar
Mike Tyson
There is no-one on this planet who can be the same or even similar to the very unique, Mike Tyson. So it made complete sense when Mike Tyson played Mike Tyson in Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles. The boxing sensation didn’t stop with his acting there, as we saw in The Hangover.
Mike Tyson
Mark Adair-Rios
Since his part as a gangbanger in Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles, Mark Adair-Rios has done some acting work in other places, like on Grey’s Anatomy when he was David Morris. For those who love HBO’s brilliant show, Big Little Lies, you’ll know him as coach Bob.

Who better to play a hitman than Anthony Ruiz? He killed the role (har har) in Crocodile Dundee II, and then went on to become more successful in television shows and movies. He’s played roles on a number of occasions on Law & Order.
Anthony Ruiz
Keli Daniels
She had a pretty small role in Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles, but at least she had a name, and that was Didi. But let’s be honest, that’s not what we remember her for, we remember her for her roles in The Fosters, American Crime Story, Masters of Sex and Zac and Mia.
Keli Daniels
Lenny Citrano
Lenny Citrano was an actor who played an actor in Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles. Quite ironic, isn’t it?

What might surprise everyone is that aside from his involvement in movies, he has also done voice overs for video games.
Lenny Citrano
Buddy Daniels Friedman
Can you imagine what the audition for a pickpocket would have looked like? Well however Buddy Daniel Friedman pulled it off, he did it right because he got the part in Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles. Very recently he gave his best in Tales of Frankenstein where he played Dr. Gregore Frankenstein.
Buddy Daniels Friedman
Matthew Kimbrough
Let’s just say that if you looked at this actor’s resume, Crocodile Dundee wouldn’t be the only impressive movie that would be listed. You’d actually also see American Beauty and Catch Me If You Can. Not too shabby if you ask me.
Matthew Kimbrough
Jay Acovone
Acovone became a well-known actor after his role as Eric in Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles. He’s a very talented actor that has taken on roles across the board, like playing a villain, a lawyer, a policeman, a mafia boss… the list goes on. But if you’re anything like my friends then you probably know him from General Hospital or CSI.
Jay Acovone

In the first two films, she was Ida. Yes, Maggie Blinco, like many of the other actors on our list, also went on to appear in lots of projects.

However, he’s better known for his role as Al-Jibar from the TV film Sinbad and the Minotaur.

Brian Turk
Linda Kozlowski
Now, we couldn’t have a Crocodile Dundee cast list without the amazing Linda Kozlowski. Of course, most know Linda simply as Sue Charlton from the franchise. In fact, her and Paul Hogan had amazing chemistry on and off set, that the two ended up dating and marrying. Hogan even left his former wife for Linda. Together, they had a son and stayed married for more than a decade, but then separated. Now, Kozlowski is retired and sadly, her final role in Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles was not very well received.
Linda Kozlowski
