Over the years, the cast of the trilogy has shown its staying power during fan events and by sparking excitement whenever they reunite in person. The third film, which hit theaters in 1996, followed the teammates as they went off to prep school and tried to one-up the varsity team. In the second movie, the Ducks represent Team USA in the Junior Goodwill Games and add a few new players, including Portman ( Aaron Lohr), who helps make up the Bash Brothers with Fulton.
The ‘90s film’s success led to two sequels, D2: The Mighty Ducks and D3: The Mighty Ducks. Throughout the film, the players - including Goldberg ( Shaun Weiss), who is a goalie that can’t stop falling down, ringer Fulton Reed ( Elden Henson) and former Hawks player Adam Banks ( Vincent LaRusso) - bond under the support and guidance of coach Bombay. With the help of Minnesota hockey hopeful Charlie Conway ( Joshua Jackson), Gordon rounds up a motley crew to play on his team. After Gordon gets into legal trouble, he is ordered to coach a peewee hockey team - the Ducks - in a league against his former childhood team, the Hawks. The Mighty Ducks, which starred Emilio Estevez as Coach Gordon Bombay, made hockey cool nationwide - and inspired some fans to quack in class when they didn’t get their way.
