Freddie Prinze Jr. is an American actor, producer, and writer best known for his roles in iconic teen films of the late 1990s and early 2000s. Born in Los Angeles, he is the son of legendary comedian and actor Freddie Prinze. He rose to fame with his breakout role as Zack Siler in the 1999 romantic comedy “She’s All That,” which became a defining film of the era.

Prinze’s career skyrocketed with starring roles in films such as “I Know What You Did Last Summer” and its sequel, “I Still Know What You Did Last Summer,” “Summer Catch,” “Scooby-Doo,” and its sequel, “Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed,” in which he played Fred Jones alongside his future wife, Sarah Michelle Gellar.

Beyond his work in film, Prinze has appeared in numerous television projects, including “24,” “Friends,” “Boston Legal,” and “Freddie,” a sitcom he co-created and starred in. He has also made a name for himself in voice acting, most notably as Kanan Jarrus in “Star Wars Rebels.”

In addition to acting, Prinze has worked behind the scenes in entertainment, serving as a producer and creative consultant for WWE. A lifelong fan of professional wrestling, he even had a brief on-screen role in WWE programming.

Prinze continues to work in film, television, and voice acting while also co-hosting “That Was Pretty Scary,” a podcast dedicated to horror films.

A Minneapolis native, Rachael Leigh Cook began her career in entertainment at the age of 15 and has since gone on to showcase her diverse talents, developing and appearing in numerous projects for both television and film.

Recently, Cook starred in the Netflix film “A Tourist’s Guide to Love,” which she developed the concept for and produced. The film was shot in Vietnam, a first for the streamer. Most recently, Cook was seen in “Rescuing Christmas,” “There She Goes,” “Sisterhood, Inc.,” and “Spirit Halloween,” opposite Christopher Lloyd. In 2021, Cook starred in Netflix’s “He’s All That,” a gender-swapped remake of her 1999 hit romantic comedy. In 2020, Cook pitched, produced, and starred in the Netflix film “Love Guaranteed,” opposite Damon Wayans Jr. and Heather Graham. The film premiered to the streaming platform’s number one spot.

What started as a love for acting eventually led to Cook finding her passion for other parts of the industry; namely creating original concepts, collaborating with writers, developing stories, and seeing them through to production. Cook owns her own company and continues to work with major networks on the development and production side in addition to acting.

Cook began her acting career in 1995 when she booked her first audition as a lead in a major film in “The Baby-Sitters Club.” Cook quickly went on to star in a host of other films such as “Strike!,” the Sundance Grand Jury Prize-nominated film “The Hi-Line,” and “Tom and Huck.” Cook went on to earn her title as rom-com darling in iconic roles as Laney Boggs in “She’s All That” and in “Josie and the Pussycats” (2001), opposite Josie McCoy.

Cook has also voiced and appeared in multiple television projects; notably as Kate Moretti, the female lead in fan favorite “Perception” (TNT), cult hit “Psych” (USA), “Criminal Minds” (CBS), “Liza on Demand” (YouTube), and the Steven Spielberg-produced miniseries “Into the West” (TNT). She regularly lends her voice to “Robot Chicken” (Cartoon Network) and the Final Fantasy video game franchise. Cook has also starred in feature films “Get Carter,” “Nancy Drew,” “A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” and “11:14.”

Aside from the entertainment industry, Cook has been involved in several campaigns supporting causes that close to her heart. She is well known for her “This is Your Brain on Drugs” PSA to raise awareness of the hazardous effects of heroin, a role she reprised with a timely spin nearly 20 years later for the Drug Policy Alliance. Cook was also selected by the Obama administration to be a Champion of Change for Arts Education. Cook is the mother of two and currently resides in Los Angeles.
