Night at the Museum and Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian were just two credits among a highly active career for Jake Cherry. As a child star, his work included a recurring role on season 3 of Desperate Housewives, episodes of House and Criminal Minds, and as the younger version of protagonist Dave in another big-budget family adventure, Disney's The Sorcerer's Apprentice. However, his last major role was a guest spot on Blue Bloods, all the way back in 2015.

The reason Cherry hasn't done any big projects since is that he's been busy pursuing a degree in screen acting at Chapman University (via nettv4u.com). In fact, the only films he's done in that time are a handful of shorts, including his senior thesis film, shot in early 2019 (via Instagram), an award-winning Jewish-themed drama The Lightning Man, and The Turing Test, a short film from Calamity Ai, a YouTube comedy channel specializing in A.I.-written content.

Following his graduation from Chapman in 2019, Jake Cherry has been devoting himself to a more personal project: He's now a game streamer on Twitch and YouTube, broadcasting games ranging from Among Us to Escape from Tarkov. You can see him live on either platform every few days, as he appears to have become increasingly active since first streaming in September of 2020.
