15 Child Stars Who Did Surprising Things After Leaving Show Business
Omri Katz started off playing John Ross Ewing III on the legendary nighttime drama Dallas, then became a teen heartthrob after landing the lead role in the series Eerie, Indiana. The show didn’t last long, but the actor made an impression nonetheless. He went on to have sizable big-screen roles in Joe Dante’s Matinee and, most famously, the witchy Bette Midler comedy Hocus Pocus, where he played Max. Katz had trouble getting roles after that, for some reason. A bit part on Freaks & Geeks in 1999 was his most notable post-Hocus Pocus appearance.
Following a one-shot on General Hospital in 2000, he bolted from show biz for good. That’s not to say he stopped acting, though. Katz starred in a bizarre short film entitled The Perfect Girl that got some buzz when it debuted on YouTube. The one-time child star showed a significantly more grown-up side in this racy video. He also worked as a hairdresser for a time before deciding to move to Israel where, at last report, he currently resides. Katz did stir up the internet recently, when he posed for an Instagram photo with fellow Hocus Pocus stars Vinessa Shaw and Thora Birch.
Fair warning, guys: don't look for that YouTube video.
