THIS film star shot to fame in a VERY famous 80s teen movie that is still loved by fans 39 years on.
In her heyday, the Hollywood actress was known for being a sex symbol so can you guess who she is?
The actress is Mia Sara who made her debut as Princess Lili in the 1985 fantasy film Legend.
However, she is best known for her breakthrough role in teen movie Ferris Bueller's Day Off in 1986.
In the film – in which she starred alongside lead actor Matthew Broderick – she played Sloane Peterson who was known for being the sex symbol of the movie.
Away from Ferris Bueller, Mia who hails from New York, also portrayed Melissa Walker in the science fiction film Timecop back in 1994.
Although Mia looks very different from her acting heyday, the 57-year-old still looks incredible and oozes glamor.
Showing off her age-defying looks, the star stepped out for a rare appearance at a showbiz event.
Mia was spotted on the red carpet at The Life of Chuck premiere in Los Angeles.
She looked stunning in her black top and matching skirt.

They met in 1995, on the set of Bullet to Beijing, and wed the following year.
