In April 1992, a family comedy directed by Brian Levant debuted on the big screens, telling the story of the crazy Newton family and their St. Bernard puppy stolen from a pet store. The production instantly became a hit, attracting crowds to cinemas, which determined its success.
In the 1990s, the Beethoven series was a hit. Christopher Castile played one of the main roles
Although the film cost less than $20 million to make, its high viewing figures meant it earned seven times as much. This was undoubtedly influenced by the star cast. Children also appeared alongside professional actors such as Oliver Platt, Charles Grodin, Bonnie Hunt, Dean Jones and others. This group included, among others: Christopher Castile, who portrayed the Newtons’ son, Ted, on screen.
When he started working on the comedy set, he already had a lot of experience in front of the camera, having appeared several times on the small and big screen, including: “Are you afraid of the dark” and “Step by step”. There is no doubt, however, that it was “Beethoven” that brought him the greatest popularity and recognition among viewers. He reprized the role a year later in the continuation of this story, making no less of a sensation. Then he played Eugene Horowitz in the animated “Hey Arnold” and although he was predicted to have a spectacular career, he disappeared from the screens for good.
Filmmaker Ted Newton gave up his career to pursue education. What is he currently doing?
Many wonder what happened to Ted in the movie. It turns out that after finishing his career, the actor decided to get a solid education. For this purpose, he began studies, becoming a master’s student, and then continued his education, obtaining further scientific titles. In the meantime, he also developed his other passion, which is aviation, and prepared to obtain a pilot’s license, which he ultimately succeeded in doing.
On June 15, 2024, Christopher Castile will celebrate his 44th birthday. He currently serves as a lecturer in the political science department at Biola University in La Mirada, California, and also teaches history at Downey High School. He is not active on social media and avoids publicity, focusing on a quiet life away from the spotlight.
