WTF happened to Cuba Gooding Jr.?

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

Hey folks we're back with Joblo's latest in our WTF series! As always we will be taking a look at some of our favorite directors, actors, and actresses who have either seemingly dropped off the map or altered their careers in such a way that it literally has us asking WTF happened? Based on careful research we examine what led our subjects to their current career status whether it be good, bad, or indifferent. As always we hope to be funny and insightful but never callous or cruel.

Our newest entry in the series centers on Academy Award winner Cuba Gooding Jr. who, if you believe his Oscar speech for JERRY MACGUIRE, loves…well …everyone. Gooding has experienced a dynamic and sometimes perplexing career. He started off in critically acclaimed movies like John Singleton's BOYZ N THE HOOD and Rob Reiner's A FEW GOOD MEN. Later, Gooding veered into slapstick comedy with forgettable films like SNOW DOGS and BOAT TRIP. In recent years however, he seemingly righted the ship with breakout performances in American Horror Story and The People Versus O.J. Simpson.

You may find your self surprised – maybe even a little disturbed – as to where Cuba Gooding Jr. is now.
