Brad Renfro – Heroin Overdose

Actor Brad Renfro was only 11 years old when he bagged a role in the 1994 movie The Client. His popularity then grew even more after his starring roles in movies like Sleepers and Tom and Huck. Perhaps because he couldn’t handle the pressures of Hollywood, he eventually fell prey to drug addiction.

Renfro was never able to kick the habit, which would later lead to his untimely death at 25 years old back in 2008. Reports at the time stated that he had overdosed on heroin. His final on-screen role was in a short film titled Collector.
