Known for being a child actor on Wizards of Waverly Place alongside Selena Gomez and David Henrie, many agree on the fact that this actor should have said goodbye to acting when he hit puberty.

Jake T. Austin has a soft spot in most people's hearts as we all feel as though we've watched him grow up on TV, but that does not mean to say that we should ignore the fact that his acting hasn't aged very well with him. While featuring on the show as Jesus Adams Foster, the actor helped make it quite obvious why his acting career hadn't really taken off since featuring on the Disney Channel Show.

Austin soon throws in the towel and announced in 2013 that he would be leaving the show. In season three, Jesus gets into a nasty car crash and everyone thinks he is dead. However, in the next season, the character returns while the actor does not. Noah Centineo steps in to save the day and a new Jesus is born. This entry is the perfect example of another actor whose reputation landed them the role before anyone could realise that maybe they weren't a very good actor.
