Jesse Bradford

Bradford was a fixture of early-2000s teen cinema, and his easy charm in Bring It On made him the kind of love interest who actually felt like a real person. What gets overlooked is the range underneath the heartthrob casting; he was genuinely unsettling in Swimfan and held his own in serious work like Flags of Our Fathers. I always thought he deserved a bigger run than he got. The fact that he studied at Columbia and branched into other ventures suggests a guy who kept his head on straight while Hollywood chewed through his peers.

Jesse Bradford (born 1979) is an American actor born in Norwalk, Connecticut. He began performing as a child and later studied at Columbia University. He is best known for film roles in Bring It On, Swimfan and Clint Eastwood's Flags of Our Fathers, along with various television appearances.
