Superbad's 'd**k' drawing child star makes a fortune from playing young Jonah Hill

Superbad child star Casey Margolis has revealed the incredible fortune he has made after appearing in the 2007 blockbuster movie starring Jonah Hill, Michael Cera, and Emma Stone.

The former child star, who is now 25-years-old, played the younger version of Jonah's hilarious character Seth.

Film fans will recognise Casey as the young boy in school who got into trouble with his teachers over his obsession with drawing penises on his school books.

Best know as the 'd**k drawing child star', Casey took to TikTok earlier this week to detail how much dosh he still rakes in every 12 months - over 15 years after the Hollywood film stormed theatres.

The former child star bragged about how he is still getting paid residuals for his role as he introduced himself simply as 'the kid who drew the d**ks in Superbad'.

Casey's cheque for 2021 for royalties from online streaming release, DVD sales and reruns of the film came to $255.39 (£189.43).

It doesn't stop there though, as he went on to detail some of the biggest residual payouts from his brief appearance in the movie.

The largest cheque he received was worth $6,757.47 (£5,011.37), and the actor says he estimates his total earnings from royalties related to the film is in the area of $100,000 (£74,000).

The video has now been viewed more than 6 million times on the social media app with fans of Superbad rushing to comment.

"I've made you all that money because I haven't been able to stop watching it since it came out back in 2007," joked one fan of the Hollywood flick.

"You will forever be d**k drawing boy to me," another quipped.

"Bro for only having like three scenes zero words to say lol that ain’t bad," someone else commented.

Meanwhile, a fourth penned: "I can only imagine how much Jonah Hill and Michael Cera are getting.”

Casey's money revelation comes after actor Jonah Hill revealed that he has one strict condition if he were ever to consider making a sequel to the classic comedy.

"I haven't pitched this to anybody. What I want to do is when we're like 80, do a Superbad 2," he told W Magazine.

"Like, 'old-folks-home Superbad'. Our spouses die, and we're single again. That's what I want Superbad 2 to be, and that's the only way I would ever make it."
