PHOTOS Degrassi reunion! Drake meets up with former costars – see what the rest are up to now
There was something of an informal Degrassi high school reunion last night in Toronto…and it was just about perfect. (It would have been absolutely perfect if more of the cast was able to make it.)
“Some old friends got together last night at the #wearedisorderly premiere,” Lauren Collins, who played Paige Michalchuk on the show, said of the top picture. Seen along with her are Daniel Clark (Sean Cameron), Adamo Ruggiero (Marco Del Rossi) and–of course–Drake (Jimmy Brooks).
In another picture with his brother and Drake, Daniel said, “Always great seeing this guy.”
The reunion comes just a few days after Lauren posted some awesome #TBT pictures from behind the scenes in honor of last week’s Teen Nick special:

Most of us know what Drake’s been up to since leaving the show. But what about the others who attended the reunion? Lauren’s appeared in a number of TV series; her most recent performance was in The Day My Butt Went Psycho! She also hosted 1 Girl 5 Gays in Canada for the seasons four through six.
After leaving Degrassi, Daniel graduated from New York University with honors and a political communication degree. He is now a news reporter and producer.
Adamo is still acting–his most recent credits include the TV short series MsLabelled and full series Saving Hope.
Despite initial reports that Degrassi was canceled, the show was quickly revived by Netflix and will henceforth be known as Degrassi: Next Class.
