We're still surprised that suave Jeff Goldblum played one of the most disgusting eco-villains on Captain Planet and the Planeteers. Does anyone else remember being physically repulsed by Verminous Skumm, the giant part-human, part-rat creature? We do! Though Verminous Skumm was a long running character in everyone's favorite environmental awareness cartoon, Goldblum only voiced the character for five episodes before leaving for other roles.
Goldblum wasn't leaving Captain Planet and the Planeteers for just any old roles. He went on to star in some of the highest grossing films of all time, including Jurassic Park in 1993 and Independence Day in 1996. And let's not forget the sequels of these blockbusters, too. His more recent film work includes The Grand Budapest Hotel and Thor: Ragnarok. He also starred in seasons eight and nine of TV series Law & Order: Criminal Intent.
