People first saw actor Jerry O’Connell when he was in the 1986 film Stand by Me. In the film, O’Connell played Vern Tessio, who was known for being overweight and timid. Well, since then O’Connell has certainly shed the image that got him noticed because he grew into a handsome adult actor. As an adult, he starred in films like Jerry Maguire and Kangaroo Jack. He wrote and sold his first screenplay in 2004 called First Daughter, which starred Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise. In 2007, he married actress-model Rebecca Romijn and they two had twin girls the following year.
