Were you even a '90s kid if you weren't obsessed with Free Willy? We can still remember begging our parents to go see it multiple times at the cinema. Jason J. Richter played the lead role of Jesse, who had what had to be the coolest summer job a kid could have. He also starred in the rest of the trilogy, Free Willy 2: The Adventure Home and Free Willy 3: The Rescue.
After Free Willy, Richter also starred in The NeverEnding Story III and Cops and Robbersons. He even guest starred on television series, Sabrina the Teenage Witch. When the time came, Richter left his acting career to pursue his education. He has since returned to Hollywood but hasn't starred in anything major yet. We're sure he's still doing okay after all of the success he achieved in the '90s, though!
