Jonathan Brandis looks his age here, around 25 or so. Too old to be playing a teenager/high school kid. I know it's still a thing Hollywood does today, but it's noticeable, especially from a guy that we saw what he looked like as a real teen around 1993, compared to him here in 2001 or so.

The mean girls always look 30 and someone’s mom.

Aaron Paul aka Jesse Pinkman!!!

I'll always love you Jon B. ❤

There's something about his eyes the light still there but it's almost like it's dimming...🥺💯🙏

It's a shame this guy gave up, his mature delivery would have served him incredibly later on in life as an actor and it's such a shame he couldn't see that. Being a 20 yr guy in Hollywood is all about looks really when it comes to marketability, he wasn't bad looking but he definitely wasn't in that category as he grew out of his childhood. Such a crying shame he ended it all before he could have achieved exactly what he couldn't have even imagined.

She’s not 18. She is in her twenties.

My family used to rent a lakehouse next to his.

Gosh, he was such, a beautiful person and excellent actor. He shouldn't have killed himself 😢🎉❤.

Brandis was only 23 years old when this was filmed in 2000. He looks like he is in his mid 30s.

He was perfect nothing wrong with him. He may have suffered with severe depression. Hollywood is a hard place to be at.

Everyone saying he wasn't aging well. I thought he was stunningly handsome. He reminds me of a young William Petersen.

His acting sucked in this film. I can now see why he wasn’t getting anymore roles. He was good as a kid but started declining.

Aaron Paul @ 1:51

I could’ve sat across from him forever, trying to think of ways to make him laugh and smile just so I could watch his eyes come alive like that. What an angel.

Handsome guy! 💔

If he was alive today he would have been bigger than Ryan gosling brad Pitt d.o.b he was a big deal in the 90’s so how big he would have been today

Love and miss you Jonathan 😢💔

Dudes way too old to be playing a high schooler 😂

This is so sad that we lost him

He was a cutie❤❤

Were these people in the 20th grade? Not one of them looks like they’re within ten years of high school.

HIS LAUGHS ARE SOOOO ADORABLE!!!! 😍😍✨

i just love his laugh.

Looks like bipolar has really gotten to him, and look where it led him. (According to his dad in 2021, Brandis was suffering from bipolar disorder; which was one of the real reasons why he decide to end things unfortunately.) He would've been great in 'The Dark Knight' series. or any other movie or TV series.

does anyone know where i can watch the whole thing?

How was this man not cast in everything in the early 2000s? Smokin hot and a great actor.

He had so much potential I’m telling you a huge career ahead of him so many movies like Spider-Man or cobra Kai I hate that Jonathan brandis left so soon

1:26

I miss you, Johnathan! ❤

It’s Aaron Paul lol 😂

Anyone else notice he is mouthbreathing in every scene? Maybe he was stressed out

It was nice to see him smile at the end of the video.

What is everyone talking about? He transferred over from a teen idol with boyish good looks to ruggedly handsome leading man. Such a shame, this guy could have made a huge comeback.

he literally looks the exact same as the jonathan we all knew and loved it was literally just a bad haircut

He looks like a creeper. Should have done serial killer roles

Wish he was still here.

I see the hurt in his eyes

Hollywood is poison. If you make it, you have to stay in it no matter what. Any type of other job wouldn't compare. You're fighting to get in, fighting to stay in and fighting to stay relevant. Very, very few people actual know they have a stable career. The ultra vast majority are constantly grinding. It wears you down and spits you out. Never let your kids go into show buisness

He should have grew his hair out. That haircut didn’t suit him was all. He could have made a proper comeback.

He grew up,I think the look had to do with his career dive. I think to match the voice he should went bald with a big beard and pivot into tv. A reinvention was due. Rest In Peace John 🙏🏾

I can totally see this guy as Anakin Skywalker. Sad that he didn't get the role.

Its amazing how much your face can change from a boy/ teen to a man. If he just had some patience he would have been able to easily pull a comeback. So many older actors have done it lately who were famous years ago

I thought this lady was like 35-40, maybe a teacher, and then she said she was about to turn 18, it took me out 😵🤯

Its amazing how much weight our vain society puts on looks. Not to pile on but hes absolutely unrecognizeable compared to his teen years.

😌😌😌😌😌😌😢😢😢😢😢😢❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹. Love Jonathan

I completely understand him. I also underwent change of teen look to adult and its horrible. Girls grow to be more beautiful but we guys loose something which is beyond words. When angelic face turn into face of round shape with beard and with falling hairline thats the worst feeling in my life. To see itself and dont recognize your face or hating it... He was also so much beautiful when he was adult, but I understand that he did not recognized himself in the mirror. Its just pain...

Where can I watch this movie?

I noticed his smile faded shortly before seaquest ended and I think that's because he stated in an interview his main goal was to direct and episode but the show got cut short due to bad reviews and less viewers which makes no sense

I hate that people hated him for growing up. Everyone grows up that doesn't mean he was any less Jonathan. Yes, he looked different but that doesn't mean he deserved to be ignored and his career needed to be destroyed. His career didn't kill him I agree with that but Hollywood did with putting the image that he wasn't good enough into his head and that is heartbreaking he was and still is an amazing person who we lost too soon I miss you Jonathan I hope you're happier now 🙂
