Ralphie from “A Christmas Story” is all grown up!

Every festive season, the 1983 classic A Christmas Story will, without a doubt, be played on TV. Not that we’re complaining, we love the film! Who couldn’t relate to Ralphie Parker's quest to get a coveted BB gun for Christmas? The adorable Peter Billingsley played the bright, blue-eyed boy – and for us, we will always remember him as little Ralphie.

But Billingsley is no longer little Ralphie. In fact, the actor is now 44! But look, he still has those same bright blue eyes.

These days, Billingsley is on the other side of the camera, working as a producer and director on projects including Iron Man, The Break-Up, Couples Retreat, and Sullivan & Son. But he’s still got a little Ralphie in him, revealing that he has kept memorabilia from the film including the BB gun and the bunny suit.
