The children from Mrs Doubtfire have shared a reunion photo together
It's been almost 30 years since the film came out
Last updated 17th Mar 2022
Iconic 90s comedy Mrs Doubtfire is a much-loved family film that many people have watched countless times since it came out in 1993. Starring the beloved Robin Williams, who plays both Mrs Doubtfire and dad Daniel Hillard, the film really showcases how hilarious the late actor was. The film also starred actors Lisa Jakub, Matthew Lawrence, and Mara Wilson as Daniel's children, and the trio have reunited all these years later.
Appearing at a 90s Con event in the US, the actors got together for a photo and fans can't get over their sweet reunion, especially with the photo's adorable caption: 'Siblings. ❤️'
Taking place almost 30 years after the film came out, the reunion photo was posted by Lisa Jakub who played the oldest sister in Mrs Doubtfire, and fans were quick to share their excitement. One commented: 'This makes me so so so so happy!!!!', with another adding: 'My heart can’t take it', and one person saying: 'This brings me much joy'.
This isn't the first time the on-screen siblings have reunited, as they met up with Pierce Brosnan - who plays their mother's boyfriend in the film - for the 25th anniversary of Mrs Doubtfire. In October 2018, Lisa shared a photo of the four of them back together with the caption: 'So this happened. #mrsdoubtfire #reunion #25yearslater'
If you're wondering what the actors have been up to since, Lisa appeared in the 1996 film Independence Day with Will Smith, as well as A Walk On The Moon in 1999. She later retired from acting and is now an author and the CEO of a wellness online community.
Mara Wilson took on the famous role of Matilda before quitting acting, and she has also published a book about being a child star.
Matthew Lawrence starred in the shows Boy Meets World, Girl Meets World, and Melissa and Joey, and has also appeared in several films.
Take a look through these memorable things from the 90s:
It's TV time!
There was no On Demand TV available, if you missed your favourite programme that was it.
Who had an alarm to watch their favourite TV show? We know we did!
A day trip involved using a MAP!
With no smart phones on the scene, going for a day trip meant you'd have to get the map out and navigate your way around the countryside.
If you got lost there was no calling your dad to pick you up, or phone to locate exactly where you were!
Full battery for a week?!
It seems unbelievable in a day when you have to charge your phone pretty much every day, but the first mobile phones were simple, and had batteries that would last a week or more.
Composing ringtones on your phone
With the release of Nokia's 5110 etc came the option to compose your own ringtone, and if you lived through that era then you'll know how fun (but frustrating it was)!
Bulging CD collections
Before digital listening and streaming, CDs took over our bedrooms. Everyone started with good intentions, keeping the correct CDs in their cases, but it wasn't long before they'd just end up in a pile on the table. Careful not to scratch one though!
Burning CDs to give to friends
Mix tapes were super popular in the 90s, but if you wanted to go a step further, then what about a mix CD full of the songs that remind you of the best times?
These days you're bound to find some of your favourite throwback songs on Magic!
Disposable cameras
Disposable cameras were the perfect accessory for parties, days out and times when you thought it might be a bit risky to take your 'proper' camera.
Not only did you have the excitement of looking through a view finder to take the photos, you'd have to wait a week to get them back. Were they worth the wait?
Call unlimited...
Hands up, who used to wait until 9pm when they could use their parents' landline for free to call their mates?
Of course, you'd always have to hang up after 59 minutes and redial to get the full benefit.
There was a computer room, and time on it was limited
Back in the 90s your family probably had a room dedicated to a computer, and time on that computer was limited! Whether it was just shared with your parents or several siblings, it didn't matter.
Of course if you wanted to go online that would also be limited, because if you were online, no one could use the phone!
Wires everywhere!
Yes, we did have games consoles back then, but of course they came with wires all over the place. Each of the controllers would have a wire, and there were several wires to connect it to the TV. No simple HDMI cables used back then.
Checking the cinema listings in the newspaper
With no Internet to speak of, the local newspaper's cinema listings were the best way to find out when your favourite film was on.
Of course once you found out the time, you'd also have to join a long queue for your tickets, with no option to buy the tickets online.
