It was 24 years ago that Jurassic Park first hit the big screen in what became one of the most successful flicks of the 90’s.
Now, we take a look back at Ariana Richards and Joseph Mazzello – the actors who shot to fame as the grandkids of Jurassic Parks’ founder John Hammond (played by Richard Attenborough) – and see what they’re up to now.
After taking on the role of Lex Murphy at the tender age of 13, Ariana went on to appear in various TV shows including Boy Meets World and Total Security. Most recently, she featured in the 2013 movie Battledogs.
Now a professional painter, the 37-year-old mum-of-one has put her acting career aside and runs her own art gallery in Napa Valley, California.
Just 10-years-old when he scored the gig as Lex’s little brother Tim Murphy, New York native Joseph has shared the screen with some of the hottest stars in Hollywood.
In 2010, he worked alongside Jesse Eisenberg playing Dustin in The Social Network and later starred in the HBO miniseries The Pacific.
Since wrapping Undrafted in 2016, Mazello has also racked up more than 10,000 followers on Twitter, keeping fans entertained with his trademark self-deprecating humour.
