One of the Twin Actors from the Popular Movie "Twin Sitters" Has Died
In recent years, he worked in the furniture business.
American actor Christian Cousins has died at the age of 43. Many remember him from the popular 1990s comedy "Twin Sitters," where he starred alongside his twin brother as mischievous boys.
The actor's death (he passed away in October) was announced on social media by his half-brother Jonas Roser, who wrote that Cousins "had been battling liver disease very hard," the Los Angeles Times reports.
Cousins and his twin brother Joseph also starred alongside Arnold Schwarzenegger in the film "Kindergarten Cop," taking turns playing the role of Dominic—the son of a dangerous drug dealer who was hiding out with his mother, Joyce. Schwarzenegger's character, a Los Angeles police detective, goes undercover as a kindergarten teacher, falls in love with his colleague Joyce, and becomes a father figure to Dominic.
"It is hard to share that my brother, Christian Cousins, has passed away," Roser wrote on Instagram. "Christian and his twin brother Joseph 'Joey' Cousins are my brothers through our biological father. They grew up in California while I lived in Washington, and I didn't get to know them until I went to college."
"He was a vibrant personality, full of passion and energy, with big stories and even bigger dreams," Roser wrote.
Cousins and his twin brother shared television and movie roles throughout the 1980s and 1990s. In addition to the aforementioned films, he appeared in "Critters 3," as well as the television series "Eerie, Indiana," "Empty Nest," and "Intruders."
Cousins was 7 years old when he appeared in "Kindergarten Cop," and according to him, after the film's release, he was recognized and swarmed for autographs at shopping malls, airports, and Disneyland. He recalled how at the theme park, an entire busload of kids lined up asking for personalized notes. He was so young that he had trouble correctly spelling the word "beautiful."
In 2020, Cousins shared that he had stepped away from acting and was working in the furniture business.
Judging by Cousins's Facebook page, he lived in East Irvine and had been struggling with health issues in recent years.
