Tyler James Williams Opens Up About Traumatic Teen Stardom and Therapy.
Tyler James Williams, former child star of "Everybody Hates Chris," revealed in a GQ cover story that a producer once told him he'd "probably never work again" after his teen stardom. Williams internalized the comment, but eventually pivoted his career and accepted roles in shows like "Dear White People," "The Walking Dead," and "Criminal Minds." He now stars in the Golden Globe-winning series "Abbott Elementary." A reimagined animated version of "Everybody Hates Chris" is set to run on Paramount+ and Comedy Central, but it's unclear if Williams will be involved.
