The Cast of “The Princess Bride” — Then and Now

 In celebration of the 25th anniversary of The Princess Bride‘s release date, here are the main characters as they appeared in the movie and as they are now (with a classic quote from each thrown in just for fun)…

Cary Elwes as Westley

“As you wish.”

Robin Wright as Buttercup

“You can’t hurt me. Westley and I are joined by the bonds of love, and you cannot track that — not with a thousand bloodhounds. And you cannot break it — not with a thousand swords.”

Mandy Patinkin as Inigo Montoya

“Hello! My name is Inigo Montoya! You killed my father! Prepare to die!”

Christopher Guest as Count Tyrone Rugen

“What did this do to you? Tell me. And remember, this is for posterity, so…be honest. How do you feel?”

Chris Sarandon as Prince Humperdinck

“Please consider me as an alternative to suicide.”

Billy Crystal as Miracle Max

“Sonny, true love is the greatest thing, in the world-except for a nice MLT – mutton, lettuce and tomato sandwich, where the mutton is nice and lean and the tomato is ripe. They’re so perky, I love that.”
