The 1995 film “Jumanji”, directed by Joe Johnston, has enjoyed great popularity over the years, especially among the youngest viewers. One of the heroes of the production was Peter Shepherd, who was played by 13-year-old Bradley Pierce at the time. Young, whose mysterious game turned into a monkey, made a sensation. Despite the success, he moved into the shadows and gave up his career.

Bradley Pierce began his adventure with the camera at the age of 6, playing one of the characters in the series “Days of Our Lives”. Shortly after, he landed his first role in the film Too Young to Die. Later, he appeared in several other interesting productions, including in “For Love”, “Chaplin”, “Murder Friend” or “Touch of Truth”. In 1995, he portrayed Peter Shepherd in the first film in the series, and his role as a boy turned into a monkey brought him immense recognition.
Pierce received many professional offers, he played m. Sammy in “The Siege of Ruby Ridge” or Max Anderson in “Little Agent”, but these were episodic roles and did not achieve spectacular success. Eventually, he moved into the background and focused on dubbing characters from movies and fairy tales.
