At 13, Jude Friedman is already proving he's more than just a rising star, and a scene-stealer with range. With the brooding charm of a young Keanu Reeves, the smirk of River Phoenix, and the unpredictable edge of a teenage Barry Keoghan, Jude effortlessly swings between comedy and intensity. Fresh off his first year at OCSA's Acting Conservatory, he's equally at home playing the misunderstood loner, the magnetic bully, or the kid who delivers the line that makes the whole set crack up. With recent roles including a young Keanu in the upcoming film Outcome and a standout performance as the schoolyard antagonist in Ethan Bloom, Jude brings both presence and professionalism far beyond his years. Versatile. Reliable. Ready to wreck the room (or break the fourth wall). Jude is just getting started.
