Brad Renfro Dead at 25
Brad Renfro is dead, reports TMZ.
The 25-year-old actor, who has had a history of drug abuse, was found dead at his Los Angeles home this morning.
He just wrapped the film The Informers costarring Winona Ryder and Billy Bob Thornton.
Cause of death has not been determined.
Via Wiki: Renfro has gone on to act in several well-regarded films in his adulthood including 2001’s Ghost World and Bully and 2005’s The Jacket with Keira Knightley and Adrien Brody. In 1995 he won Hollywood Reporter’s “Young Star” award and was nominated as one of People’s “Top 30 Under 30.”
UPDATE: Craig Harvey, chief investigator for the Los Angeles county coroner, told People that drug overdose is “obviously it’s a possibility considering his history, but right now all we have is the history of his drinking the previous night. All that we have is that he was last known to be alive during the morning hours and he was snoring.”

Jeez, but with him, it was just a matter of time. Isn’t he the kid who was in The Client?

He was so good in the movie ‘The Client’. Aw, so sad…he is still so young!

i remember him when he was cast in the movie “The Client” …it was like a big deal that they did this huge casting call for young boys and cast this guy as an undiscovered, so much hype and now dead at 25…just terrible

Sooo sad. I used to love this guy. He is my age. This is such a shame.
OMG, this is seriously TERRIBLE! That is soo sad :(.
This was bound to happen considering how the guy was a major druggiee. Next should be the blonde bimbos like Lohan or Spears.
poor family
wow… i just watched bully like 2 nights ago. fcuked up
This is so sad! When I was younger, I loved him. He was so talented and wasted it. When is young Hollywood going to wake up and straighten themselves up….never!
My thoughts are with his family.
wow…. sad sad sad
i don’t know him but gezz he is so young=S!
ggeeeezzz…
omg! i remember him from sleepers. so sad.
At the risk of sounding trite, gone too soon.
This generation has it’s own River Pheonix now. What a horrible tragedy & a wasted talent.
When I watched “The Client” I kept wondering…. Who’s that kid who’s stealing scenes from Sarandon & Mary Louise Parker?
And this guy was in Tom and Huck, with Jonathan Taylor Thomas, if anyone remembers that movie. That is so sad, he is so young.
I mean was.
HOW SAD

OMG! This is so sad…
I really loved him when I saw him in Sleepers and The Cure.
He’s such a beautiful boy…
I can’t believe this, sooo sad……….
May his soul rest in peace………
wow, i feel sorry for his family
omg i can’t believe this! news like this always make me really sad… RIP Brad
I remember being really impressed when he was in The Client, and his chemistry with Susan Sarandon was terrific. Unfortunately it wasn’t too long after that he got into the drugs (too much too soon, IMHO). I doubt Young Hollywood will ever learn. Such a waste.
What!
