In April of 2021, a tweet went viral after someone pointed out that Spider, a character from School of Rock, was now a politician in Texas.

After his role in Jack Black's 2003 comedy, the model turned actor found success in a Brazilian telenovela. He also appeared in music videos for Alanis Morissette and Paris Hilton.

But it seems as though Babin preferred to follow his father's steps, a Republican congressman in Texas. Babin has been a district attorney in Woodville since 2018 but made headlines in September 2020 for being involved in a controversial indictment against Netflix.

He claimed the streaming company had promoted visual materials of a child's pubic area in the 2020 movie Cuties.
