Can You Recall These Starship Troopers Characters? See Where They Are Now

Carl Jenkins – Neil Patrick Harris

While there were quite a few less recognized actors in the Starship Troopers cast, Neil Patrick Harris was quite the recognizable star by the time he filled the boots of Carl Jenkins. You probably remember him from Doogie Howser, where he played the titular and lovable character. In Starship Troopers, he played an initially jovial and easygoing youth with psychic powers who later becomes a severe and powerful member of the Military Intelligence. At the end of the film, Jenkins uses his psychic powers to find the Brain Bug’s location.
