Troubled Actor Brad Renfro Dies at 25

LOS ANGELES — Brad Renfro, the young actor whose film career began at age 12 with "The Client" before dissolving as he struggled with drug and alcohol problems, has died. He was 25. His body was found in his Los Angeles home early Tuesday, his lawyer Richard Kaplan said. The cause of death was not immediately known.

Renfro served 10 days in jail in May 2006 after pleading no contest to driving while intoxicated and pleading guilty to attempted possession of heroin.
Renfro's lawyer Richard Kaplan said the 25-year-old actor's body was found in his Los Angeles home early Tuesday, Jan. 15, 2008.

He starred opposite Susan Sarandon and Tommy Lee Jones in "The Client." His other credits include "Ghost World" and "The Jacket."

Damn, when the movie came out, Tom and Huck was one of my favorite movies. What sucks is that he's the first actor whose more or less the same age as me

Yes, it was. Unfortunately, this is not a huge surprise.

I've never even heard of this guy before, so in a way he is more alive now then he was before he was dead.

Also known as the "Selena Effect", which unfortunately thrust Jennifer Lopez on the unsuspecting public.
