Born Again Christian: Slater2.0 Inspires New Generation of Rebels With a Cause
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be married to Christian Slater? Of course you have: The ’90s embodiment of that untamable “bad boy” (or, fingers crossed, boyfriend!) you don’t bring home to your parents, it’s understandable that most hot-blooded American teens have at least imagined trading Barbie’s Dreamhouse for a black Corvette and driving off into the sunset with J.D. from Heathers. With Netflix’s Stranger Things putting Winona Ryder back on the map during the same months of Slater returning for Season 2 of USA’s breakout techno-thriller Mr. Robot, it almost felt like a programming conspiracy to keep 2016 as the summer of Heathers 2.0 (quite possibly for an audience demographic too young to get the reference). Luckily, Slater, now 47, does not disappoint in the intriguing marital details department.
