Frederic Forrest was already an experienced actor before working on “21 Jump Street” and working with him was one of the main reasons that Johnny Depp joined the show.

Richard Grieco starred in the TV series “Booker”, which was a spin-off from “21 Jump Street”. Peter Deluise, Holly Robinson and Steven Williams all appeared in several episodes of this to try to boost ratings, but after 22 episodes it was axed. He is also a musician and in 1994 released the album “Waiting For The Sky To Fall”. He still appears on TV and in films regularly.


In 2002, it was reported that Paramount were attempting to make “21 Jump Street” into a film and more recently there have been rumours of Jennifer Love Hewitt taking one of the main roles.

The first and second series of “21 Jump Street” was released on DVD in 2005, including commentary from Peter DeLuise. More series are set to follow.

I beg to differ. But J. Depp only became increasingly famous due to Pirates Of The Caribbean. Anyway, he’s one of the finest actor in Hollywood. I’ve been watching some of his movies (other than Pirates Of The Caribbean), and I notice he is very flexible with his acting skills. He fits right into the character he’s potraying. But I do hope he’ll stop working with Tim Burton.

mainstream popularity yes after Pirates Of The Caribbean

but he has always been a well known actor to his legions of fans, albeit underrated before POTC
