- Devon Sawa opens up to ET’s Deidre Behar in a wide-ranging interview, reflecting on his past as a ‘90s teenage heartthrob and looking toward his future as a versatile actor. The 42-year-old star gets candid about his early work in beloved films like ‘Casper,’ explaining that he’s come to terms with his character’s iconic line, ‘Can I keep you?’ Despite admitting that his heartthrob past comes up occasionally in casting sessions, Sawa says he’s grateful for his early roles because he wouldn’t be where he is today without them. In fact, the actor has a great reaction when he watches back a 1997 throwback clip on-set of ‘Wild America.’ He also reveals that he was ‘heartbroken’ after losing out on a big movie role he really wanted and was close to landing. The Canadian actor also shares his story of getting ‘burned out’ and nearly quitting acting after working most of his childhood, which led him to take an extended break in his mid-twenties. Today, Sawa has a refreshed perspective and is more passionate about acting than ever. In recent years, he’s shared the screen with actors like John Travolta, Sylvester Stallone and Sharon Stone. Sawa’s latest project, ‘Hunter Hunter,’ a chilling horror film about survival, is in theaters, on Digital and VOD on Dec. 18.

Devon Sawa. The name alone takes me back to my childhood. The posters, the diary entries...lol! Girls of the 90s know.
Yes!
Yes girl!
Bop!!
I knowwww,ahhhh lol 😂❤
Thank you for being my fan
Loved this guy in Final Destination, his acting especially in the plane scene was so real and the style was great!
Hi fan
Agreed
@@MetalMayhem1978 where you from ?

Devon is so underrated as an actor!
He will forever live rent free in my mind
🤗😍😘🥴😅🤣
Lol
Yessss lol
Really
What a nice guy and great actor, I'd love to see more of him!
How are you doing
I remember everyone used to say how much him and Nick Carter looked alike back in the late 90's/early 2000's, loved Final Destination, Wild America and Casper.
And now he looks like Daniel Craig.
Night of the twisters lol
Thank you for being my fan
It shows that we are all getting older. But Devon continues to be this actor whom I admire for his professionalism.
Thank my fan
Idle Hands was my first rated R movie. I was so obsessed with Devon that I snuck over to my friends house to watch it since his mom couldn't care less what we watched. I still sit around watching night of the twisters, wild america, now and then, etc. to get my devon fix. He was such a big part of my childhood 💖
I'm down the rabbit hole of all the actors & actresses I grew up on. I remember loving the secret world of Alex Mack. Idk how I got fascinated w/ Jessica alba bc she was such a mean girl. But I guess she was as colored as they'd get back then & I guess I resembled her a bit. I remember having a crush on her crush. & My cousin & I going down the phone book trying to find him, lol 😖🙈🥴. that dudes gay now, I believe. 🤔🤷🏻♀️ I guess no matter the status, they go down their certain rabbit holes too. It's like caulkin seems like the most normal one ... & even he's been through hell. The fact that his vibe is entirely no comment on Jackson. Being emancipated from his parents,,,,
I used to have the BIGGEST crush on Devon Sawa in middle/high school
Same 😂
Same lol
He was so cute when he was younger😭😭
and now you get crush from random Strangers*tm
@@lunasam9 who said that
Casper, Now and Then, & Little Giants!
What classics and such a huge part of my childhood.
Is little giants that hockey thing. I like final destination tho
Omg he was one of my biggest crushes as a kid!!! idle hands was one of my favorites
Thank you for being my fan
😮I can’t believe he was in Casper and I loved that movie. I came looking for the actor from Stan. The versatility is insane.
He seems like a good kid that turned out well considering how child stars generally go.
Might have helped that he wasn't a "superstar." He did quite a few projects but I think his most famous film was Casper (which he barely appears in). I liked him in Night of the Twisters, Little Giants, and Final Destination. When I think of child stars I think of Drew Barrymore, Molly Ringwald, Fred Savage, Dakota Fanning, Macauley Culkin, and poor Jonathan Brandis.
Was there anyone who wasn't devastated by that Anakin Skywalker casting? People hated Christensen, Sawa talks about being massively disappointed here, and Brandis committed suicide in 2003.
Thank you so much
He is still good looking. He was my favorite back in the 90s. 🤩😍
Thank you for being my fan
It's such a trip that Devon is in his 40s now. I first saw him in "Night of the Twisters" (still one of my favorite movies) in 1996, when I was only 6 and Freeform (which produced and aired the film) was still known as The Family Channel. It's amazing how time flies.
I loved that movie too!
Fox family. Then ABC family. We’re my favorite channels!
Im Only half a year younger than him. Time flies
How are you
HE IS SO CUUTTTEEEE WISH I WAS OLDER TO HAVE KNOWN OF HIM BACK THEN
Thanks
I'm so glad Devon SAWA is still around, my childhood crush ❤️
I would LOVE to see Devon, JTT, and Macaulay do that project!!
I MISS ME SOME JTT GIRL
Thank you for being my fan
Every 90s kid girls celeb crush... 😍
Nah, Leonardo DeCaprio is in that lead.
@Vero E I mean, especially after Titanic, girls has been fangirling over him ever since.
Thanks
@@devonsawa6637 Lol. 😆
@@askinni where you from ?
Great interview! Learned a lot about him that I didn’t know! He was great in Nikita!!
Yes and also Somewhere Between
I would love them to make a new casper with him as the Dad!!!!
I like Deven Sawa. Idle Hands is the best movie ever!!
Actually watching it right meow. And Seth green is funny af in it
Thanks
Wooow a huge difference., A great actor.
Thanks
he's a 90s teen hearthrob..I used to have a poster of him with Cristina Ricci from Casper film.
Hi
I didn't realize that was him in Casper. 😅I remember him from the Final Destination movies. 😉 I haven't seen him for a while.
You will
I wish I can find "wild America," on streaming.... I haven't seen it in 20 years, loved him and JTT

He was in some of my favorite movies growing up. Final destination and idle hands. I just finished the Chucky show and I had no idea it was him until after I finished the 1st season.
Thank you so much
Welcome back Devon.
Thank you
I LOVED him ... a part of me still does
@Vero E … And you don’t even know me! I never said I stalked him. Nor did I claim to be pining away for him! I’m married and have been for 12 years. 🙄😒🙄 So go away and kindly F off with your criticism!! Buh-bye ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
Thanks
@@devonsawa6637 ☺️ No problem
@@danielinteagan5086 where are you from ?
He was my teen crush I had posters of him all over my bedroom walls and a few on the ceiling above my bed 🥰
Listen to stan by eminem
Thank you for being my fan
He was in the Stan video, he was really good in that video
Loved him in the 90s, and still love him now 😍
Thank you so much
@@devonsawa6637 lmao you're not even the real devon
I remember him in that movie called idle hand
Lol
Love throwbacks!!!
Thanks
I just watched ‘Wild America’ and ‘Final Destination’ in the last week. I forgot he was also Stan in Em’s video. This guy was such a part of my childhood.
He aged nicely
Thanks
Devon sawa is the man
Thanks
He is my favorite actor ❤
Thank you for being my fan
Devon Sawa would've been an awesome Anakin Skywalker
Looks more like a obi wan
Thank you so much
Casper is a straight up banger. Still hold up.
How are you
OMG! Devon Sawa ! The Casper 😁👏🏼
Love that
We all remember Devon by his performance in Final Destination. Nevertheless, let's not forget that he appeareanced in the videoclip of "Stan" by Dido & Eminem, which is one of the most listened songs to this day, and Devon knows it better than anyone. Furthermore, I keep forgetting he starred in Casper, which I saw as a kid.
Thank you so much
Love him so much really happy that he’s back and doing well I love Chucky!
i had a crush on him so bad when i was a kid LMAO and he is still FIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEE!!!!
I am looking forward to this movie.
Okay
Very handsome man. And great actor!
Thank you
Devon Sawa gosh he was so cute
Thanks
In some part of my mind and memory these actors stay the same age forever. Its pretty sureal seeing them older even tho I'm close to the same age as him he's 5 years older than me I can t believe we are this old already it really does go fast and it's gone before you know it
Thank you for being my fan
Hes such a good actor that I was watching Chucky and kept seeing his name wondering when hed pop up I google it and realized he plays 2 characters 1 that's always on screen and I never noticed it was him.
The same thing happened to me.
Thank you
Yo you made my day just thanks me. Keep being you. We are watching the skills pour out. Can't wait to see what you do next bud

I just watched him in a movie called Disturbing the Peace with Guy Pearce & I did not know he was the kid from the 90's movies.
Even though his name was in the credits, and intrviews for the film. lol
Thanks
Jesus he is the same age as me, I had a massive crush on him back in the day.
Really
We also cannot forget him in SLC Punk, running around with green hair tripping acid.
What? JTT, Mac and Sawa? Wtf, i would of paid to see that! Those three guys I had the biggest childhood crushes on when growing up in the 90s!
Dude is a legend and doesn’t even know it.

I’m born in 2002 and now I'm 18 he is my childhood boyfriend 😭😭💜💜💜
Wow
He is my high school crush 🥰
Love to hear this
Omg !I would never say that's the same person he looks nothing like his teen self ..like at all.........is that the same person?for real ?
That’s what I said because usually when you’re a teenager you do have some of your teachers you know because when you look at your teenage pictures usually have some future is to tell that you’re the same person but yeah I was like amazed because I’m like when I seen him and found destinations stuff you know he wasn’t super super young is like a teenager that’s why I was shocked to see him now same person can you tell him it’s from his kids years to learn he was younger than a teenager he had those futures and I was in the door you don’t have it
Yah it is
Little Giants ✨
Omg. I just love him and that movie!!!!!🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
