Former "Wizards of Waverly Place" actor Dan Benson is reevaluating his career, considering a departure from the subscription-based platform OnlyFans. Known for his role as Zeke Beakerman on the hit Disney show, Benson has been a part of OnlyFans, where creators engage directly with their subscribers by selling content. However, the actor disclosed feeling burdened by his experiences and is contemplating a hiatus to reexamine his career paths. "After years of doing this, it's starting to weigh on me, and I'm going to pull away for a while and take some time to reflect," Benson revealed. He also voiced a desire to potentially seek a "normal job" and live as a "normal person," hinting at a significant pivot in his life's direction.
The Permanence of Online Content
In his discussion about future endeavors, Benson extended advice to those contemplating a venture into platforms like OnlyFans. He highlighted the critical nature of being cautious and deliberative about what to share, pinpointing the difficulties of erasing internet content once it has been posted. This caution comes amid his personal reflections on the more permanent aspects of digital footprints in the cyber world.
Career Beyond the Limelight
Benson's departure from OnlyFans marks a pivotal reconsideration of his career, which has been primarily in the spotlight since his time on "Wizards of Waverly Place." His role on the Disney series placed him in a cohort of actors whose careers have diverged into various realms within and outside of entertainment.
