Actor Brad Renfro dies at 25

TMZ scooped everyone, as they seem to be doing a lot more lately in entertainment, with the news that Brad Renfro has died at 25.

From TMZ:


"The 25-year-old actor was found dead at his Los Angeles home this morning. The cause of death has not been determined, however, Renfro had a history of drug abuse."

I'm willing to go out on a limb here and agree with what TMZ is implying -- I'm betting we find out he overdosed on something. Which is a shame because Renfro was a pretty decent actor. I've followed him ever since I saw him in "The Client." Since then, he's turned out some good performances in movies such as "Sleepers," "Apt Pupil," "Bully" and "Ghost World."
