Can you guess who this actor is?

He's a former Disney star who spent four years in prison but has now transformed his life for the better - can you guess who he is? 

It's Adam Hicks!

Hicks played Luther on the Disney Channel series Zeke and Luther from 2009 to 2012 and Joe in the 2006 family comedy film How To Eat Fried Worms.

He has an extensive resume of acting credits, with notable roles in the series Freakish and Pair of Kings.

But in 2017, he faced several brushes with the law and was arrested in 2018 for alleged armed robbery.

He was sentence to five years in prison in July 2021 but was released in March 2022 due to time served, according to TMZ. Hicks had already spent 1,460 days behind bars ahead of his sentencing. 

But since then, things have dramatically changed for the better for Hicks.

Hicks has overcome an addiction to alcohol and Xanax and has been sober for six years, according to People.

The actor has turned his life around since his legal woes and has been open about his past. 

After his arrest, he was ultimately found unfit to stand trial and was taken to a state hospital. 

In an interview with People, he called it his 'lowest moment.'  

'When I did come around, everything hit me at once,' he said. 'It was the gravity of the situation, the people I had let down, how sorry I was for what had happened and my actions. And knowing that I wasn't in my right state of mind, but still knowing that that's not an excuse.'

During his four year prison stint, he 'learned a lot about myself being in a cell.'

'I'd always masked my emotions, masked my feelings with substances or whatever it may be. And that was the first time that I actually was in tune with my own self and trying to figure out what to do from here on out,' he said.

'So that was the start of my sobriety. From the hospital to getting out to now, I've been sober six years, and I've made a commitment to try to help people.'

The actor said he felt 'good' about himself. 

'I feel good about myself, I do. I do feel good because I know how far I've come and I know what it was — and stuff like this, you never get over,' he said.

'I think the people I let down and the people affected, this is going to live with me forever. It's always going to be there as a reminder of how bad things can get.'
