Netflix’s show My Life with the Walter Boys is supposedly a teen romance. But most of the cast are way, way beyond that demographic. Here’s a side-by-side comparison of the real ages of the My Life with the Walter Boys cast and the ages of their characters. It’s pretty eye-opening.

Alex Walter is meant to be 17, like Jackie. IMDB says his birthday is 30th July 1999, in which case he’s 26 now.

Um, believe it or not, Nathan Walter is only meant to be 15 in season two. Wow, they all have action-packed lives, despite being literal children. The actor Corey Fogelmanis is a fully-grown adult at 26. He’s a whole 11 years old than his character.

The eldest Walter boy, Will, is 26. The actor is 31 – that’s, like, only five years out! Way to go, Netflix!

The heroine Jackie is supposed to be 16 in season two of Netflix’s My Life with the Walter Boys. She’s in the midst of learning to drive.
Some people used to think Nikki Rodriguez was 22. This age was listed on Wikipedia and IMDB. Then, people found pics of her graduating from high school in 2010. Something didn’t add up. The U.S. Sun found public records that list her date of birth as being in July 1922 – in which case she is actually 33. This would make her a big 11 years older than the teenager she’s playing.

Cole and his twin Danny are 17 in season two. The actor who plays Cole is 27 – a whole decade older than this.
