First success
The debut was successful, and Freddie began to receive offers for episodic roles in youth films. The 1997 picture "I Know What You Did Last Summer" directed by Jim Gillespie became the actor’s first serious work, despite the fact that it was shot in a fairly easy manner and belonged to the category of slashers, that is, horror films.
The following year, the continuation of the film, "I Still Know What You Did Last Summer," was released. This picture was already shot by another director, Danny Cannon, but with the same cast. Since both films immediately became very popular, Freddie Prince Jr. gained fame in youth circles and in his future career he tried to participate in film projects on a youth theme.
"That's all she is."
A year later, Fred starred in his next film entitled "That's All She Is" directed by Robert Iskov.

After this film, in which Freddy played a major role, he became a famous actor not only in the United States, but throughout the world.
After the success of the film “That's All She”, Freddie Prince Jr. began to act only in the main roles.

Scooby Doo
In 2000, at the initiative of People magazine, actor Freddie Prince Jr. was included in the list of the 50 most beautiful people in the world. And two years later he played Fred Jones in the movie Scooby Doo directed by Raja Gosnell. The picture is based on the comedic-mystical events taking place in Spring Break. The main female role was played by the wife of the actor Sarah Michelle Gellar.
Blockbuster "Scooby Doo" was a resounding success, box office was a record. The producers, without delay, put into production a sequel to the film called Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Free. The budget of the new picture was not high, the film used 13 soundtracks, and this is a very expensive pleasure, taking into account the summary results of the royalties of soloists, accompanists and composers.
Art of scoring
The sequel "Scooby Doo 2" was released in the spring of 2004, but the success of the first film did not exceed, although it took a confident place in the ratings. At the same time, the animated film "The New Adventures of Cinderella" was released, and Freddy Prince Jr., whose filmography at that time already contained more than 30 paintings, could, for a change, engage in the voice acting of the cartoon, which he did in the company of Sarah Gellar .
Being a truly creative person, Fred tried to try himself in other forms of cinema, namely in producing and writing scripts. One of his samples is the series "Mutants X". However, the combination of several, albeit related, professions in the film industry requires self-sacrifice and renunciation of personal life. Therefore, Freddie Prince Jr. remains primarily a highly qualified actor.
