Actor Jonathan Brandis, 27, who starred in the movie "The Year That Trembled," which was filmed in Ohio, was found dead in his Los Angeles apartment Wednesday. Brandis, 27, was found by friends and pronounced dead at a hospital, according to the Los Angeles coroner's office. There were no signs of violence. An autopsy was due to be performed yesterday, an investigator said. "The Year That Trembled," produced by Tyler Davidson and Scott Lax, who were living in the Cleveland area at the time, was filmed in Ohio and premiered at the Cleveland International Film Festival in 2002. Brandis played Casey Pedersen, a young man who is caught up in the turmoil of the Vietnam War. "It's a terrific tragedy, and our hearts go out to the family," said Davidson, who now lives in Los Angeles.

RIP Jonathan!

He played "Michael" in the epsiode "A Little Romance" when he was dating DJ and told DJ that she's not pretty.

He dumped her for Kathy Santoni.

That appearance was the first thing I thought about when I heard he died. I still wonder what happened.

I was so sad when I heard the news. I used to have the biggest crush on him back in 1995 when I was about 12. He was so popular back then, and then it seemed like he just dropped out of show business. I had just been wondering what had ever happened to him a few days ago, and the same day, I got online and saw the news that he was dead. Very, very tragic....

That's so sad to hear! It's terrible, he was so young...

I remember his role on The Neverending Story II, a movie I like a lot and used to watch like a million times a day when it came out.
And, of course, I remember his guest appearance on FH very well.

He was an incredibly beautiful child. I didn't get to see him on the newer things he did, but he'll surely be missed.

I saw Jonathan Brandis on "Full House" in one of the episodes. Sadly, he died. That was sad news.
