Diary Of A Wimpy Kid's Brady Noon Tells A Hilarious Prank Story Involving His Twin Brother - Exclusive
Brady Noon, the voice of Greg on the new "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" movie on Disney+, is a very good actor, but he's not exactly one of a kind. That's because he has an identical twin brother.
Brady and his brother, Connor, got their start in show business playing Tommy Darmody in "Boardwalk Empire." As is often the case with young actors, the show had identical twins playing the same young child. The two actors would alternate the role of Tommy throughout the series.
While Brady continues to act, Connor has by and large left show business for the time being. His only other credit on IMDb is for an upcoming movie called "Marry Me," starring both twins. Brady plays a character named George, while Connor's role is listed as "Not George." Sounds like there will be some twin magic going on there.
As anyone with an identical twin should do, they've used their resemblance to pull off at least one prank.
Twin magic
During an interview with Looper promoting "Diary of a Wimpy Kid," we had to ask Brady if he ever pulled a switcheroo with brother Connor.
"We have done it once in school," Brady told us. "We did it once. On April Fool's, we did it to his teacher. I sat in the back of the classroom. He sat in the front of the classroom and we kind of rehearsed it and we were like, 'At nine o'clock on the dot we'll both raise our hand and ask if we can use the bathroom in unison.'"
The plan was a massive success, both in execution and outcome. "The teacher did not catch on. She was like, 'Yeah, you can go.' And we both stood up and left. And she was like, 'Oh, I was just playing along. I was just playing along.' I was like, 'No, I don't think you were. I think you just did not genuinely know.'"
"Diary of a Wimpy Kid" is now streaming on Disney+.
