Edward Furlong Then
From the very beginning, Edward Furlong has shown us that he has what it takes to be a star. He was a Teen Idol winner and cast to play John Connor in Terminator 2: Judgement Day. In American History X he played a skinhead and received acclaim for it. He has been in a number of different films and shows such as American Heart, Detroit Rock City, The Green Hornet, A Home of Our Own, and Pet Sematary Two. In the ‘90s, he kept acting but saw mixed success. He released an album that was only released in Japan.

The truth is that he has gone through a lot of challenges in the past. His career started to decline as his substance abuse issues got worse. In October 2000, he checked into rehab at last. “I was a heroin and cocaine addict. It was really scary. I don’t even think about [partying] anymore. It seems lonely now: running and clubbing and doing coke. I have nightmares about doing hard drugs,” he shared. We are glad that he is in a better place now. However, his past issues clearly took a toll on his appearance.
