Cool Runnings Cast Reflects on John Candy at 90s Con Reunion
The cast of the beloved 1993 film Cool Runnings reunited at 90s Con in Hartford, CT, celebrating the film's legacy 32 years after its premiere. Stars Leon Robinson, Doug E. Doug, Malik Yoba, and Rawle D. Lewis shared fond memories of working with the late John Candy, who played coach Irving Blitzer, emphasizing his humility and generosity. Yoba recalled that the film was initially intended as a drama before Candy's involvement shifted it to a comedy, highlighting Candy's ability to bring depth to his role. The film, which tells the inspirational story of Jamaica's first national bobsled team, earned over $150 million and remains a cherished comedy. The reunion served as a poignant reminder of Candy's impact, despite his passing in 1994. Fans of the film were treated to nostalgic reflections on the underdog story that has transcended generations.
