Emilio Estevez appeared in Disney's D3: The Mighty Ducks (1996) for free in exchange for the studio providing this film's $3 million budget.
Director Emilio Estevez cast three generations of his family in the project. He cast his father Martin Sheen, his sister 'Renee Estevez', and his daughter Paloma Estevez.
After the film's paltry distribution and thus small profit, Emilio Estevez considered quitting the film business.
