SHAUN Weiss is known for his role in The Mighty Ducks franchise.
Over the years, Weiss has found himself in a lot of problems due to his addition.
Weiss is a native of Montvale, New Jersey.
Born August 27, 1978, Weiss is currently 42-years-old.
Weiss was a child actor who got his start in the industry at just 8-years-old on Pee-wee’s Playhouse.
Weiss was arrested back in 2020 after breaking into a man’s garage while high on meth.
Following his arrest, Weiss entered a drug court program to try and overcome his addiction to drugs.
On July 22, 2021, Weiss successfully completed the program and had his burglary case dismissed as a result, TMZ reported.
Weiss looked almost unrecognizable from his January 2020 mugshot as he has since become healthier and even got new teeth.
On January 27, 2021, Weiss celebrated one year of sobriety and has continued his journey since.
The D.A. Office told the media outlet that Weiss, “demonstrated perseverance during his recovery complicated by the COVID-19 pandemic.”
“He had to move treatment and transitional living programs on several occasions. He underwent dental reconstructive surgery, and had a close family member suffer a serious accident during his treatment.”
The D.A. added in, “Shaun regained employment and has been traveling across the country making guest appearances and signing autographs. He received tremendous support from friends and fans of the character, Goldberg, he played in the 1992 hit ‘The Mighty Ducks.'”
While many child actors accumulate an impressive net worth, Weiss’ addiction struggles hurt him both physically and financially.
As of 2021, Weiss has an estimated net worth of $500 according to Celebrity Net Worth.
Throughout his career, Weiss starred in The Might Ducks franchise, along with making appearances on The Cosby Show, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Boy Meets World, Heavyweights, and Freaks and Geeks.
Along with acting in movies and television shoes, Weiss has also been in over 30 national commercials throughout his career and was even in the Pizza Hut commercial at the beginning of the 1990 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie.
