Do you remember Even Stevens? Because if you were a kid in the early '00s, you probably watched the now classic Disney Channel while you were growing up. It's crazy to think the show ended 15 years ago already. But it's true. So do you ever wonder where the cast of Even Stevens is now? For example, where's Beans from Even Stevens now? And what does he look like? And did he get hot? What about that kid who played Louis Stevens? Whatever happened to that guy? Well, I have good news for you. Because I'm here to answer your burning questions about where everyone from the cast of Even Stevens is now.

Nick Spano, Then
Donnie Stevens was the oldest brother of the Stevens family clan, he was played by Nick Spano. He is the airhead and jock of the crew and, along with that, arguably the babe of the Stevens kids. He was a legend at their high school in athletics but still the dullest crayon in the box.

Ty Hodges, Then

Fred Meyers, Then
Tom Gribalski was Louis's nerdy best friend. Out of his three best friends, Tom would be the chicken and one that would try to coax Louis out of his scheme. He is very into science and always speaks very intelligently and matter-of-factly which is probably why he is usually the victim of Louis's pranks sometimes.
Fred Meyers, Now
Fred Meyers played Tom Gribalski the nerd that always rubbed you the wrong way. He seems to be laying low lately. His last movie role was playing "lanky teenager" in "Hallowed Ground" in 2007. It was hard to find a photo of him but this seems to be the most recent photo.
