It seems that some of the films and TV series we loved as children are now decades old. Think of The NeverEnding Story, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, or even Baywatch. And of course, the young actors that played child roles in these have grown up significantly. For example, Jonathan Lipnicki, the child star of Jerry Maguire, is already 30 years old, and Noah Hathaway, who is remembered for his performance as Atreyu in The NeverEnding Story, will turn 50 in November 2021. Even Georgie Henley, aka Lucy in The Chronicles of Narnia is now 25!
Bright Side did some research to find out what 18 child actors from the ’90s and the beginning of the ’00s look like today, and here’s what we found.
1. Jeremy Dunn Jackson (Hobie Buchannon), Baywatch (1991-1999)

Another wave of legal filings was announced on October 1, as per the Los Angeles Times, with it revealed that more than 100 people have planned to file lawsuits alleging sexual abuse and exploitation on the part of Diddy.
In light of Diddy’s arrest, speculation has linked a number of A-listers to the now infamous “Freak Off” parties he used to host. Not only that, but clear links have resurfaced relating to Diddy’s connection to Justin Bieber, said to have been just 15 when the pair met.
According to a troublesome claim made by RadarOnline, Bieber, now 30 years old, is “haunted” by his past.
Concerns were raised by fans recently when Bieber appeared fatigued and gaunt while stepping out for dinner with his wife Hailey. RadarOnline suggest that it was around that time old clips of Bieber and Diddy went viral.
In one of the clips in question, Diddy boasted about spending “48 hours” with Bieber, then just 15.
“He’s having 48 hours with Diddy. What we’re doing, we can’t really disclose. But it’s definitely a 15-year-old’s dream … we’re gonna go full crazy,” he said.
Now sources are suggesting that Bieber’s links to Diddy may be adversely affecting the Baby singer. One individual, said to have worked in Bieber’s team for years, told PageSix: “Do I believe he was involved in some stupid s—? Yeah.
“He was a teenager. He was the biggest pop star in the world. Everyone was worried about him, and we didn’t know if he would survive it.
“People took advantage of everything he did.”
Another source added: “Justin’s done some really crazy s— and he’s alienated the people around him. He doesn’t trust them.”
Since his arrest, Diddy has been denied bail twice, with judges citing the fact that Combs could intimidate witnesses.
