Personal details

Jonathan Lipnicki

Jonathan William Lipnicki (born October 22, 1990) is an American actor, producer, and writer best known for his roles as a charismatic child actor in the late 1990s and early 2000s. He made his memorable film debut at the age of six as Ray Boyd, the son of Renée Zellweger's character, in the acclaimed 1996 film Jerry Maguire. His star status continued to rise with lead roles in major family films, including George Little in Stuart Little (1999) and Stuart Little 2 (2002), Tony Thompson in The Little Vampire (2000), and Murph in Like Mike (2002). After taking time away from the major studio spotlight to focus on school and later training in theater, Lipnicki dedicated his adult career to independent films, working behind the camera as a producer, and training extensively in martial arts, holding a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. More recently, he has appeared in films like the horror-thriller Broil (2020) and the reality prank show The Joe Schmo Show (2023), and has taken on a new role as an Executive Producer for Buffalo 8 Production. Despite the challenges of transitioning from a globally recognized child star to an adult actor, Lipnicki remains committed to his craft, actively seeking out meaningful projects to "turn his ship around" in the industry.
