Child Actors Who Died Young, Way Before Their Time

- It appears that being a kid star is linked with a more challenging adult life. Although this is not always the case, many child stars and actors/actresses have met untimely ends, frequently at a very young age. Young people don't appear equipped to deal with the pressures of fame. On occasion, you'll encounter somebody who appears to be able to successfully manage the pressures associated with widespread public attention. But it's terrible how often you hear about former kid stars who went crazy as adults. If they were never famous, we frequently wonder what kind of person they would be. What if their parents had said no when they were young and had their first shot at the entertainment industry?

It might be heartbreaking to find out that a beloved actor or actress from a film or TV show met an untimely end. There are several instances where this is the case, for instance, Heather O'Rourke.
Young actress Heather O'Rourke shot to fame after appearing in the original Poltergeist (1982) and went on to star in both of the film's sequels, Poltergeist II: The Other Side (1985) and Poltergeist III (1990). (1990). As O'Rourke's doctors had mistakenly diagnosed Crohn's disease just months before filming began on the third film in the series, this was the last film she would ever complete in the franchise. It was too late by the time the wrong diagnosis was figured out.
She went into cardiac arrest after an unsuccessful attempt to remove the obstruction through surgery due to septic shock. O'Rourke, only 12 years old, tragically lost his life during the procedure. Another favorite child actor was River Phoenix. Joaquin's late sibling became a famous child actor after making his first major cinematic appearance in Stand By Me. At the time, it appeared that this performer was destined for Hollywood stardom. Sadly, River's drug use skyrocketed during this time, and on October 31, 1993, at the age of 23, he died of a drug-related heart attack.

Judith Barsi also did the voice of Ducky in the first Land Before Time movie.
Anissa Jones who played Buffy from Family Affair died at 18 years old from a drug overdose.
It's truly tragic that river Phoenix died so young because he could had gone far he was a gifted actor 🙏😥
Well said, we strongly concur! Thank you for watching our content and for sharing your thoughts. May River find peace 🙏
While it is heartbreaking to hear about all of these talented young people, leaving the world at such a young age. I still feel somewhat brokenhearted about Brittany Murphy. I loved all of her performances and believe she would have gone on to become a legend.
Well said, we strongly concur! Thank you for watching our content and for sharing your thoughts. May Britanny and those who passed away find peace 🙏
Cameron Boyce's death was shocking and is deeply missed by his Descendants co stars. RIP Cam.
Truly, may Cameron find peace. What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?
@@FactsVerse Good question. Maybe a update on Married....with Children?
For many of us, the late Brandon DeWilde was the most outstanding child actor of all time, from MEMBER OF THE WEDDING to his immortal role in SHANE. In his teens and twenties, he more than held his own opposite Paul Newman (HUD) and John Wayne (IN HARM"S WAY). Tragically, this precious one was taken from us when Brandon was killed in a car accident on his way to a stage performance in BUTTERFLIES ARE FREE. My heart also goes out to Brittany Murphy.
I have to think that the movie biz had a hand in all of these young people's deaths! Brutal.
I think not some were killed in car accidents murdered some died from diseases ...
@@reginalopez7634 The biz eats people up and throws them away when they're of no use to them anymore! There are thousands who'll take their place on a moment's notice!
So sad. May all have eternal peace. So young.
🕊️🙏❤️
Truly, may all those who passed away find peace. Who were you most surprised with?
@@FactsVerse definitely Judith Barci. I have known about her but just the fact that her own father did that to her and her mom, saddens me.
You should have included Bobby Buntrock, of "Hazel" fame, who on April 7, 1974, died at age 21 in an automobile accident when his car veered off a bridge under construction into Battle Creek, drowning him in the submerged car. Or Brandon deWilde, among others, of "Shane" and “In Harm's Way” fame, who died at age 30 in a car crash in Colorado on July 6, 1972.
One that you didn't put on this list... Gary Coleman
Yes, and his co-star Dana Michelle Plato, November 7, 1964 - May 8, 1999.
But he didn't die that young
@@stevendurrant7523 Neither did Brittany Murphy, but she’s there.
@@josiahbahuaud2294 yeah fair point but early 30s is quite young
Judah story breaks my heart Just because it was her own dad that did it
Her dad should have gotten counseling I'm just saying
Yes. Her dad was straight up a horrible father.
@Raine:)
Yes
Has to be River Phoenix, he was one good actor! Thanks Facts Verse for this video, quite interesting.
🙏 RIP RIVER PHOENIX 🙏
You're very much welcome! We're glad to know that you love our video. If we may ask, what other types of video would you like to see on our channel?
Anissa Jones, Buffy in "Family Affair" deserved a mention here. Maybe in part 2 ?
There are (unfortunately) a few more than that which didn't make the list including Trent Lehman from Nanny and the Professor that took his own life in his early 20s and Bobby Buntrock from Hazel and an original Rock em Sock em Robots commercial that died in a motoring accident in his early 20s!
Watch out for our part II 😉
I heard very bad things about poor Caril Ann. 😕 God bless her. ❤️
What have you heard?
Me too.
Cameron Boyce hit me the hardest as he was my childhood celebrity crush and was my favourite actor. I do miss him so much
RIP 2 everyone on the list. 🙏
Truly, may they all find peace. Who are you most surprised with?
I was surprised you didn't talk about Gary Coleman, since you showed him in the thumbnail. Heather O'Rourke, Judith Barsi & Cameron Boyce were some of the saddest.
Bobby Buntrock from the TV series Hazel was missing from the list.
He died from suicide I heard.
You forgot about the girl that played the yellow Power Ranger
Heather O'Rourke by far, devastating.
Absolutely, we feel the same way! Thank you for sharing your sentiments and for watching our content. What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?
We are all talented in our own ways and for this it is sad when any child or person passes suddenly especially at a young age!
We absolutely agree! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. Be safe and enjoy the have a great day!☺
They're all great child actors and all very deserving of the very same high status too.
Absolutely, we feel the same way! Thank you for sharing your sentiments and for watching our content. May they all find peace 🙏
@@FactsVerse :You're Welcome!
Dang
🙏🏽i remember heather o ruke and josh ryan evans and their deaths . Y'all forget about garry coleman. Brittney murphy I adore her
I love clueless but its always sad to watch it because of brittanys death...
The child actor death I remember the most was an actor named Shawn Phelan. He was in the movie Toy Soldiers and guest starred in a few TV series until he was in an awful car accident in the early 1990’s. I believe he was around 19 years old at the time of the accident but he didn’t pass away until about 4 years later.
All of these young celeb deaths are so sad.
My god Judith and her mother didn't anyone notice the coming adult from her father and then O'Rourke should never had died such a waste of life and Talent shame on the industry...O'Rourke should have been rechecked...
Who can forget Josh Ryan Evans from Passions? A lot of people didn't know he was an adult until he passed away in July 2002. Ironically, his character Timmy died on the same day his death was announced after becoming a real boy. Josh was supposed to come back to the show after his surgery but he never did. 😔
He and Juliet Mills were great together.
I miss them all
sad
This is just sad
Bridgette Andersen, of Savannah Smiles.
That's just really sad of all the actors died at a young age🥺
But for the people with the drinking addiction they should have gotten therapy I'm just saying
Gary Coleman died in his 50s.
He was in his 40s. He was 42 when he died in 2010.
You forgot Rebecca Schaefer who played in my sister Sam with Pam dauber and was gunned down by a fan also Selena Quintinella who was shot by her fan club president Yolanda salzabar
The Family in Poltergeist's house was haunted... "BY A GHOST"??
The name of the movie is "POLTERGEIST", genius.
"Ghost" is a completely different entity AND film.
...and it was FAR from only one.
ACCURACY...
Facts Verse: Why is you are showing Gary Coleman's picture and you don't even do a segment on him at all? I like to know why you didn't even mention him at all?
Because he didn't die young
@@stevendurrant7523 You tell that to Facts Verse about your comment!
I miss heather o'rourke my favorite actress and I love her and she's cute and pretty and loving lady and special to me
Gary Coleman should be on the list of child actor who passed away.
I feel bad from Michael cuccione, you mean car crash and respiratory failure it's upset cos it's kinda heartbreaking. Rest well Michael
Our Gang was a movie series that started long before TV was in inented.
I love them all
Glad to know that you're a fan! May they all find peace 🙏🙏
Where would they be today had they not had health issues and or bad parenting?
Well said, we strongly concur! Thank you for watching our content and for sharing your thoughts. What other types of video would you like to see?
River Phoenix Could Have Been One Of The G.O.A.T's.
A fair few people on this list and a few that were not. died in there twenties and thirties.
What other types of video's would I like to see? Family Friendly Nudist Movies Or Television Series? Family Friendly Gay Rights Movies? What Other Lists Would I Like To See? Gay Actors Who Never Played a Gay Characters And Naturist Nudist Actors Who Never A Naturist/Nudist Character.
@@baldbeardedbloke6887 you are right
Logan Williams forever 16 years old because of fentanyl 😢
I feel like one of Judith’s neighbors should have called the cops after she and her mom were killed.
Their neighbors did, one even made a comment saying "He finally did it". All the adults in Judith's life failed her.
What about the son of Nickolas Lyndhurst son and also the other actor who was in everybody loves Raymond
You forgot to mention Jonathan Brandis and Bobby Buntrock.
Two other child actors come to mind-Gary Coleman, and Anissa Jones should have been included.
I miss Heather O'Rouke. I have a feeling she would've gone on to become a star, like Drew Barrymore.
Us too! Which role of Heather appealed to you the most?
İ miss Cameron Boyce so much 😟😢☹️☹️
Nozomi Tsuji died in 2000-01,cloned and impostor replaced!
She was replaced by doppelganger Masaki Sato
We all live we all have to die the Lord has the final say we are mortal not immortal and the people who entertain us become a big part of our lives. Almost to family member and it's with heartfelt empathy we say goodbye to them. May they all rest in peace that have died so young. And God bless those get to live out their years in peace. I am well aware of the feelings that go with the loss of loved ones so I know what others go through. God bless amen and thank you for the years even if short of entertainment. Rest in peace heart ❤️ 🌹
Amen
How many actors have died of COVID just wondering.
Too many
Brittany didn’t die in her bath tub
So sad
Truly, may they find peace 🙏
So sick of those stupid climate change propaganda ads before you can watch a video
Me too!
Why is Gary Coleman on here ? he was a grown man when he died
For sure I don't miss the one that die to drugs.
