I had the biggest crush on him when he played Casper 😭. “Can I keep you?” Yes dead boy. Yes you can
😂
I watched a clip of that scene today, and I thought, "man when that kid grows up he's gonna be a hottie" - been forever since I'd seen it and forgot that it's Devon lol. It's this video that slapped me in the head that it was he who played real boy Casper. I was right though. Still a hottie to this day.
Me too😂
My childhood memories 🥰🥰
omg same!!!
Final Destination is a solid 90% at least. Those critics are full of themselves. One of my favorite thrillers. Devon made that franchise iconic🔥
I was thirteen and made my
Mom take me since it was rated R. I almost pooped my pants and we left before the teacher died in her house.
they should make a movie about stan
Great film when they get off the plane then it blows up, that part blew me away
Too bad they killed him off-screen in FINAL DESTINATION 2 😀
@@Mike-cs1ft oh really the plot of the movie ...i never seen that part ..when was that
Hes very healthy looking and im glad he was a childhood favorite glad hes okay his comeback in chucky is awesome
It’s funny that he did those roles to escape the heartthrob thing, because Idle Hands and Final Destination just made me like him more! Glad he keeps coming back in Chucky 😊
Wild America doesnt get tha recognition it deserves
Idol hands is a great movie with him. Totally underrated.
Had to scroll way too far down for this comment. Loved Idle Hands.
Couldn't agree more. In my top 10 of all time for sure.
Huh, didn't know stan was in idle hands. You learn something everyday
I've watched it probably 30 times.
yes!! @@hiro0078
Bro, these 90s stars are making me feel super fucking old bro. I’m at a point in life where I’m watching the teenagers and young adults that was on my TV as a little kid be old people now it’s beautiful and scary at the same time
This man had my heart since Casper... now I'm 37 XD
Omg same! From Casper and now and then I had the biggest crush 😭
Same. I'm 38 and he's STILL my favorite actor.
Same here I'm 35 this year 😅 I made my parents in buying the VCR tape like prolly months after watching it in cinema 😘
Same here! He stole my heart ❤️ I always did think he sounded different as a ghost and then as human 😆 But a few years back I did find out it was two different people with the voices.
I just turned 40 btw 😅
Same!!!!!!
Little Giants was my movie back in the day!🎥🏈
Same, I had SUCH a a crush on Devon thanks to that movie!
My crush was Shawna Waldron as Becky “Icebox” O’Shea!🥰🏈
Me too bro... 😏😏✊🏾✊🏾@@RickMichaels-if5eq
GIANTS GIANTS (HELP US GOD)🙂🤣
When I was a teenager I met Shawna Waldron at a summer camp and spent quite a bit of time with her. She taught me how to throw a football. I was a big fan of Little Giants, so I thought that was pretty cool. She's a super nice person.
Final Destination and his performance as Stan were my personal favorites.
Devon is a trail blazer man people just don’t know how long he’s been around he is a great actor
My childhood crush..🥰 started when he played Human Casper ..the slowmo moment🥰
Same hun, same. That’s why my son is now named Casper.
Little Giants did it for me !! ❤
@@Kisses2die4yes!!!!
Same
Yesss when he was like can I keep you 😅❤ I was like hell yea you can keep me
Man, I didn’t realize he was such a HUGE part of my childhood! Wow! Always loved him! I watched SO many of those movies and some are still my favorite! ❤
same. i only knew idle hands, black friday and chucky. i knew he was in the first FD but ive never seen it or just dont remember it because that highway scene in 2 still has me staying way back from log or phone pole trucks lol
Wild America and Now and Then are two of my favorite movies from childhood. All of these are classics. Glad to see Devon doing well.
I was smiling so hard through this whole video. 🥰 Devon was such a huge part of my childhood. I'll never forget 6 year old me seeing the human Casper reveal on the big screen! I never knew what a major crush was until that moment 😂
Same! He’s so charismatic 🤩
If you’ve not seen it yet, you should watch his interview w Michael Rosenbaum on Rosenbaums podcast “inside of you”.
He seems a lot cooler than I was expecting for some reason. First time actually seeing him talk outside of acting.. and in maybe twenty years 😅
Devon, JTT, Elijah Wood, and Jonathan Jackson. They were it when I was young. Adorable and talented.
And Johnathan Brandis! I hate that he felt so tormented..gone way too young.
@@Meg-A-Saurus Yes!!!!! I forgot about him. I loved his movies and he was so cute and such a talented actor.
@@wendybrown500 He really was!
Idle Hands ftw !!!
My favorite line from Casper: “Can I keep you?”
Casper made me cry every time. The music, the scene at the end, it was my childhood film right there. A rare treasure for sure
Hello. Good afternoon. Do you know why I do not always love the Eminem song, Stan? It has sound effects of a girl screaming, it is too sad, plus its music video accompaniment is both controversial and sad at the same time.
Dude seems like a fun, humble guy...
Yes very normal and himself.
Devon has and always will be a class act.
The fact that John Travolta agreed to do 'The Fanatic' shows alot of respect to Devon as an actor.
wicked film.
A Final Reunion would be great
Yes!!!! Agreed!❤
He was my favorite childhood male actor, alongside Christina Ricci of course.
Christina Ricci's a man!?
A good friend of mine had him facetime me at a convention a couple months ago and he was the absolute best to chat with! Casper, Now and Then, Idle Hands, SLC Punk have forever been my top favs. I watch Idle Hands with my husband every October. It was such a treat to meet him over facetime. It was like he was calling an old friend and that old friend was me 😊❤ it was so cool!
him saying that he hated being a heartthrob reminds me of Jonathan Brandis 😢💔 he wanted to break out of that too… obviously he went another way RIP
Grew up with Devon..ill be 40 on Friday & i definitely feel a kin with Mr. Sawa; Icon 4eva(throw bk too the 90's with my "4eva" 😂😂)❤❤🎉🎉
Aww man I wanted to hear about Slackers! Lol that movie is a comedic gem
Can't believe it got left out...."they call me Cool Ethan" 😂
Devon & Final destination is The GOAT🤟😎💖
It's funny you mentioned that because Devon gave me chills when he was in Eminem's "Stan" video playing the obsessed title character.
Idle hands, final destination, SLC punk, all those movies are 🔥
Oh man time just flew so fast.
I had the biggest crush on this guy as a kid. I LOVE THE LITTLE GIANTS + icebox !! Memories the good ole days.
He’ll always be a heartthrob to me! I still have my wild America on VHS! 💜🙏
My favorite! In the 90’s my mom use to scream Devon Sawa to me every time I walked into a room and I would turn red. Love him
He saved my life from going on planes. Thank you Mr. Devon Sawa.👍🏽
My first celebrity crush was Macaulay Culkin. Then the French kid singer, Jordy. Then I was mesmerized by Devon Sawa in Casper. Ultimately, I feel for Pocahontas' John Smith.
I definitely have a pattern!
OMG!!! I was soooo in love with Devon as a young girl. I had all the bop posters on my walls and rewatched all of his movies on VHS over and over. I'm glad to see him doing well and still handsome all grown up. 👌🏻 TakeXare
Hello. Good afternoon. Do you know why I do not always love the Eminem song, Stan? It has sound effects of a girl screaming, it is too sad, plus its music video accompaniment is both controversial and sad at the same time.
@marklopez7775 Hello. I've always liked that song. I think it's meant to be satire.
Devon was my first celebrity crush. Love so many of his projects
he was so good as stan. the acting and lip-syncing was perfection.loved him on nikita too
Yeah!!! Low key happy Macaulay turned the opportunity down!!! 😂😂😂
@@treblelatrice926The Stan role though (you mean?)
Such a a great sit down retrospective. So kudos to ET and Devon Sawa. They should do more of these.
Yea, like their version of Vanity Fair’s retrospective, although I think I prefer this style better when the person they’re interviewing speaks to an interviewer instead of the camera.
Casper and Pinocchio were my favorite 🤩 in the 90s 😍
From nerf to Casper and chunky, this guy has landed the most iconic roles out there and he’s so perfect in all of them!

@@marklopez7775 I love Eminem but I’m pretty selective love with the songs so don’t even know that one. I’ll just agree with you because it sounds like there’s a reason I don’t listen to that one.
@@kelleywyskiel3478 Hello. Good afternoon. My name is Brian López, and what is your favorite episode of My Gym Partner is a Monkey? Please let me know in the comments down below.
Man, I forgot he was in so many movies before Final Destination…lots of childhood staples. And he’s having an absolute blast on Chucky, hope they renew it!
I’m a 90s baby and Devon Sawa was my fave crush/actor. I love to see how down to Earth he is! Also, they never mentioned Extreme Ops. Love that movie!
I had the biggest crush on Devon in Casper. I was a kid myself.

Idle Hands is still one of my favorites!
I remember how excited I was mailing off for his fan club and getting back a booklet on his life lol
Love Devon Sawa. Obsessed since a teen and he’s still a class act.
He’s handsome.❤
Macaulay Culkin as Stan might've helped his career as a mature actor.
He was actually doing some quality stuff at that time, for some reason he just stopped making Hollywood movies
Macaulay is a great adult actor
I literally grew up with this guy and I didn't know it. Even going back to the Nerf commercial. SLC Punk is one of my favorite movies. I didn't even piece together who he was throughout the years. Kind of weird. And the Stan video as well. Final Destination? That was him? It's kind of blowing my mind right now.
I love Devon Sawa so much! I hope he comes back to Chucky if Don Mancini makes a season 4!
He was great in Chucky! Playing multiple characters, too 👏
Don's having way too much fun thinking of new ways to kill off his characters. There's no way he won't be coming back.
This is how you get to age when youre not problematic. He looks healthy.
My older sister had the biggest crush on him back in the day. I was more of a JTT girl.
Still remember him from the wild America movie ! Such a under rated movie !
I've always loved that song and the video. Eminem is a true poet and storyteller 🙌🏼
Cant forget his awesome IDLE HANDS!!!
Jessica alba was so perfect
@@StuffedBearSus yes!!!! She was perfection in that movie.
Love how nice he is he plays a villain and psychopathic characters yet he’s as chill as a popsicle
Such a humble and well spoken person
Devon is severely underrated! He's been incredible in every movie I've seen him in. Idle Hands is one of my favorites bc he fully committed and made it a legit movie. The way he was able to move his hand and his body followed was awesome! He's made every role genuine and believable
He became such a hot daddy… my god. - I knew he had potential in the 90’s but I didn’t think he’d turn out so handsome.
Love him! Idle Hands is one of my favorite movies.
I’m glad that he’s still out there doing it! He always had this likability about him.
He's like 150 years old!! The amount of experience
Devon, JTT, Leo, Nick Carter, and Prince William. The 90s boys.
Hello. Good afternoon. Do you know why I do not always love the Eminem song, Stan? It has sound effects of a girl screaming, it is too sad, plus its music video accompaniment is both controversial and sad at the same time.
The 90s kids Hollywood stars and the fandom without Social were just another level that time! They paved the way to a better landscape of movie and TV making today.
I was sooo in love with Devon when he was younger 😂 he looks very different now, but I can still go back to his old movies. Casper was my favourite ❤
This guy deserves more credit, almost feel like like he’s the Feldman of the 90’s. Didn’t do as many movies but the ones he did stuck with people. Casper and little giants to this day are some of my favorites. Final destination brought something new to horror at that time. Idle Hands is a damn classic good ball horror that never gets old for me. Just all around love this dude.
All of us loved him as teens, he was most every girls celebrity crush
He is always one of my favourites childhood actors. I am still watching him on Chucky. He is amazing. I am glad that he turned out find the way he is.
Devon Sawa has always been sooooo fine and he’s aged soooo well! He’s still so hot 🥵
I had to google though, He's only 45! He looks ok but a bit rough for only 45, thought he was older.
@@EdwardC100 Probably has to do with all the hard partying he did when he was younger which is what drive him out of the industry for a while to get clean and find himself.
He is even better looking now WOW ❤
This guy was a core memory for
Me growing up as a little girl
I did not know he did all those films as a child, awesome Ty great upload
5/5/24
I was born in 1995, thankyou for making my childhood special! Now i have such great taste in movies 🍻❤
Bro looks completely different now. Love his different roles each season on Chucky talk about range
Had the biggest crush on him OMG, Junior in Little Giants and Scott on Now and Then
Big Fan of Devon Sawa been watching him for years.
Casper, final destination, little giants, and Stan were the best! ❤ He looks great along with his little family. 😊
I think it was called "Life on the line". I liked that with him in it. It was appropriate and genuine and serious. Well done!.
Good ole Devon, my favorite Final Destination protagonist
I was in looove with him since little giants and casper....❤
BRING BACK FINAL DESTINATION!!!!❤❤❤❤😊😊😊
He looks so different from when he was a kid.
But still handsome!!❤
He got his teeth fixed.
We need him back for final destination
Love Idol hands. The 90s was so fun.

@@marklopez7775 it was very controversial I agree. But shows how a sick person can become a obsessed fan.This happens to celebrities quite a bit.
@@kayleighjohnson6907 I see. Well, what is your favorite Aaahh!!! Real Monsters episode of all time? Please let me know in the comments down below.
I never made the connection that he was, live Casper, plus final destination guy plus, STAN! great work, I loved him in everything he’s done!
Idol Hands is my joint!!!
Most definitely 🤘🏽 such a cool and crazy movie
Omg ❤❤❤ whaaaattttt !!!!!! Hope he’s coming back to the spotlight he’s really been missed ❤
You was and are great keep it up bro it’s crazy how hard things can get but you put out some awesome work
He is very grounded & humble
He will always be “Stan” to me.‼️
My sister and I LOVED Wild America growing up. We used to watch it multiple times a day, no joke.
Always wondered what happened to this guy. Loved all his movies: Casper, Idle Hands, Final Destination, etc..
Still love you Devon! 20 odd years later, you're still an amazing guy ❤
Oh man, I had the biggest crush on him. The strangest thing happened, 10 or so years later… I gave birth to a child that look really really similar to him. 6ft 4in blonde hair and big blue eyes. Mysterious weird occurrences I tell ya. Even better, his favorite scary movies are … you got it… Final Destination movies. This was a really good interview. Thanks ET!
Yesss!!! When I saw this, had to click on it!!! I hope this gets a lot of.views!!!!
@@treblelatrice926 💜💜💜🦄
I totally get that! I had the biggest crush on Ron Weasley and my youngest son looks just like a Weasley red hair green eyes, and we’re Mexican so that’s rare. ❤
@@MimiBlackbirdoh wow! 🤯 aww I bet he’s more handsome than Ron! 💜 they sure do grow up fast too. The crazy part is I didn’t realize how much he resembled him until watching this. Me nor his father have blonde hair or blue eyes. I’m green, he’s brown. Both my parents have brown and both his parents have brown. It’s those .0000001% chance and we got it with our boys lol
Hes so fine still lol i loved him when I was younger I’m 36 now ❤ looking at him young he could of played jack for titanic

Junior Floyd !!!! & Casper !!! Before Final Destination lol
He was my first celebrity crush. I had his poster on my wall in middle school. ❤
Took my kids to see Casper at Halloween 2022. Was wondering where Devon Sawa went. I loved the Casper movie.
