Fans of The Goonies beware - the truffle shuffle could be out of action after the movie's star Jeff Cohen sports a much trimmer physique decades after the movie shot him to fame.
Jeff, now 48, was one of the stand-out stars of the iconic 1985 film, but is now unrecognisable to movie buffs.
And while Jeff can show off a thinner physique he admits his "chunk to hunk" transformation came at a cost.
He was one of the hottest properties following the film, but he says his new slimline figure wasn't exactly accepted by the industry in Hollywood.
Now, Jeff is an attorney, but previously opened up about how his acting roles dried up as his appearance changed.

The star of the Steven Spielberg story said: "There were basically about four fat kids in town, so every time there was a fat kid role you saw the same people at the audition.
"It was survival of the fattest. But when I hit puberty, it was a career-ender for me. I was transforming from Chunk to hunk and I couldn’t get roles any more."
The Goonies, directed by Richard Donner, first hit cinema screens in 1985 and, reportedly, then 11-year-old Jeff was afraid of losing his part after coming down with chicken pox.
The family film classic sees Chunk and his pals head off through underground tunnels and sewers to find the treasure of One-Eyed Willy.

Chunk is kidnapped by antagonists the Fratellis but somehow manages to escape with the help of the deformed Superman Sloth.
After his days as Chunk were done, the star racked up several more acting credits with roles in 1987 TV short Popeye and Son, as well as voicing Grunt in the movie Scooby-Doo and the Ghoul School.
However, by 1991 his acting career was over with his last credited role being his voice over role of Ward in the TV Movie Perfect Harmony.
These days he works as a partner at the Beverly Hills law firm Cohen Gardner LLP and he is still linked to the showbiz world with his firm's work previously including negotiating for artists in Black Panther and Crazy Rich Asians as well as the 2017 horror flick Get Out.
