In this crazy time, when people become famous for no reason (like, literally, no reason whatsoever), the notion of “celebrity” is a funny thing. It can come in an instant and leave even quicker. It’s incredibly tough to tell who, or what, will become the next big thing.
But we said to hell with that and decided to give you a money-back guaranteed list of your favorite stars who will be making a miraculous comeback in 2014.
Top 10 Celebrity Resurrections for 2014
-
1. Ralph Macchio
Oh, the Karate Kid. We know that you pine for him as much as we do. He’s the brave outcast that defied all the odds and stole our heart. And he also in My Cousin Vinny (which is an amazing movie). It’s been too long since Daniel-san kicked some ass, and we bet you that he’ll make a big splash in something very, very soon.

2. Bridgette Wilson-Sampras
You might remember her as Billy Madison’s super-hot teacher, but we remember her as Sonya Blade from Mortal Kombat. And while this beautiful and talented woman probably doesn’t need to act anymore to support herself (thanks, Pete Sampras), we’re betting that she’ll make her return to the screen, and our hearts, in 2014.

3. Candace Cameron
Oh, come on. Don’t tell me you didn’t pine over this woman back in the Full House days? And did we mention that she’s Kirk Cameron’s sister? Weird, right?

4. Judd Hirsch
This dude disappeared off the face of the planet. Seriously. What the hell is he doing now? He was hilarious in Taxi. We’re betting that he’s going to score one of those sweet Snickers advertising gigs that slingshots him back into the public eye. So get ready for some Judd back in your life!

5. Kim Coles
Everybody’s favorite non-single from Living Single has been pretty quiet for the past few years, but we’re betting that she’s going to come back strong in some sort of gut-wrenching movie about… the economy?

6. Soleil Moon Frye
Punky Brewster! You guys all remember her crazy childhood adventures. Since then she hasn’t done a ton, but she definitely has the makings of a Neil Patrick Harris-style resurrection. Now if only they were making another Harold and Kumar movie…

7. Michael Keaton
He’s been quietly making a comeback for a few years now. First, The Departed. Next, the Robocop remake (yes, he’s in it). And finally, what we’ve all been waiting for, MULTIPLICITY 2! No, I’m not being sarcastic. The first movie was hilarious and I want him to make another one.

8. Nicole Eggert
Everybody’s favorite hot blonde was featured in both Charles in Charge and Baywatch, but, since then, her career has been on a pretty big downhill slide (risqué movies and all). It’s about time for her to get a gig playing some sort of southern, preachy mom who comforts her daughter in the midst of stupid, youthful love problems. And we’ll all welcome her back into our hearts.

9. Jonathan Ke Quan
The actor who played Short Round has been absent from Hollywood for nearly 20 years. Seriously. Let me give you the rundown of his career: Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, Goonies and then nothing. It seems like he could have written his own ticket, but I’m betting that he was just saving up his cred, like Daniel Day Lewis, so he can come back in 2014 and blow us all away.

10. Ernie Hudson
My favorite Ghostbuster. Ray was a nerd, Venkman was an asshole and Egon was just Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory. And that left Winston, and Winston was a boss. Hudson’s had a few acting gigs since then, but he has really started to churn out some movies lately… Do I feel a resurrection a-coming?
