Freddy will be an integral character in the Frasier reboot, with the project marking the third time that Frasier Crane's son was recast.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The Frasier reboot recasts Freddy for a third time, and there's a good reason why. When Kelsey Grammer returns as Frasier Crane in the Paramount+ reboot, he has one clear goal — to fix his tense relationship with his grown-up son. Frasier and Lilith's only child has appeared in both Cheers and the original Frasier, but mostly as a secondary character.
Learning that Frasier and Freddy are at odds with each other may be surprising for long-time followers of Grammer's snobby therapist. Despite living separately for many years, Freddy regularly visited his father in Seattle and occasionally, Frasier would go back to Boston to be with his son. Overall, there wasn't any kind of animosity between the pair, which makes their conflict in the Frasier reboot on Paramount+ curious.
Did Freddy's Original Actor, Trevor Einhorn, Turn Down The Frasier Reboot? In the original Frasier, Freddy was played by Trevor Einhorn. There is no official word on whether Grammer and his creative partners ever reached out to him to possibly reprise his old character in the Frasier revival. However, it's worth noting that original characters such as Jane Leeves and David Hyde Pierce opted to sit out the Frasier reboot.
Freddy's Recast Continues A Cheers & Frasier Tradition Einhorn may have played the role for the majority of Freddy's existence, however, he wasn't the original actor to portray the young Crane. In Cheers, twins Christopher and Kevin Graves alternately inhabited the role. Subsequently in the original Frasier, Luke Tarsitano briefly played Freddy in 1995. The next year, however, Einhorn took over until the end of the series in 2004.
