Back to The Wizbits Cast and Crew

Eric Cummings

A precocious and talented child star, Eric Cummings got his big break in show business at age 13, when James Langomedes chose him out of dozens of auditioning young actors to play the part of Lander. Langomedes thought it was important for the role of Lander to be played by an actual child (it is unclear why he thought this, as he cast adult actors in all other roles).

Eric's star rose quickly during the three-season Wizbits run, landing him awards, endorsement contracts, and adoring fans from all over the world. He even parlayed his fame into a musical carrer, with his first album Eric topping the charts for over six weeks.

Unfortunatly, after the Wizbits series ended, the world suddenly wanted little to do with the older, slightly akward Eric Cummings, and he dropped off the national radar. Bankrupt, friendless, and addicted to furniture polish, Eric was arrested for the armed robbery of a South Carolina Krispy Kreme franchise, and is currently serving a three-year sentence in a medium-security prison.
