BRAD RENFRO

Brad Barron Renfro had over 20 feature films and voice roles to his name in Hollywood. His lead role in The Client at 11 became his stepping stone into the world of famous teen stars. Before being selected as a “client”, Renfro had no acting background and lived in the trailer park with his grandmother. Director Joel Schumacher wants to create a “naughty child” who has the necessary life experience and can understand the character he portrays.

When Renfro continued to star in movies such as Tom and Huck and Sleepers, he quickly attracted a large number of fans. Following his association with bad characters, his career began to rapidly fade due to alcohol and substance abuse. Being a young star, he got no chance or inclination to seek assistance in a drug rehab or alcohol rehab. Sadly, at 25, Brad Renfro overdosed on drugs and died in 2008. No one knows how far he went with his life insurance.
