He'll play Ben Stiller's son in Focker-in-Law, the newest installment of the beloved Meet the Parents franchise.
But while he may be a 30-year-old grown-up nowadays, Gisondo started his career as a boy-next-door-type kid, and an adorable photo of him from back in the day is going viral—and creating memes so good even Gisondo himself is joining in.
It all began with a photo of Gisondo smiling like an aw-shucks all-American kid at the premiere of the 2015 remaked of Vacation, in which he starred alongide Ed Helms, Christina Applegate, Leslie Mann, and the original film's stars Beverly D'Angelo and Chevy Chase.
The photo is nothing short of downright wholesome, with Gisondo grinning in a grey suit and black tie in a way that makes you think he might be, say, a 9th grader at a perfect-attendance ceremony at school. Aww...
And it seems a lot of people on the internet saw the same thing, because the photo has launched an entire meme where people talk about Gisondo as if he is in fact a schoolboy.
The results have been so hilarious—and so plentiful—that they made their way to Gisondo himself, and he's been posting his favorites to his Instagram Stories.
So what kind of memes are we talking? Well, remember those kids we all knew back in school—like that one kid who was always pretending to give himself a shot with a mechanical pencil?
Right. Or how about the kid who kicked a dodgeball so hard it got lodged in the school gym's ceiling?
Of course. And then there was that one lucky duck who always got pulled out of school for dentist appointments.
It just sort of took off from there, and has become a compendium of core shared memories from our school days.
One, of course, joked about that thing that has become universal in schools: the kid with the peanut allergy.
That one tickled Gisondo so much that he even popped up in the comments of an Instagram round-up of all the memes to confirm both his allergy status and his love of the trend.

"Shockingly no peanut allergy, but otherwise feeling really seen here."
He's also changed his profile picture on Instagram to the 2015 one that started this whole thing. Long live Hollywood stars with a sense of humor about themselves!
You can see Jackson's full answer here:
That response should have given Collins plenty of time to prepare an adequate response for her October 6 debate with Jackson.
With that prep, Collins said during the debate:
"I have been strongly voting against the tariffs with Canada. I’ve also been working behind the scenes."
"Troy mocked it, but I was successful in getting concrete, pulp, and road salt removed from the tariff list."
Jackson countered:
"I didn’t mock the fact that she got road salt back. I mocked the fact that—what about everything else? I mean, we can’t eat road salt."
You can see the moment here:
The former logger and union leader added:
"And the thing about it is that everything that she is doing with the Iran war and stuff like that, there’s gonna be so many less people that are gonna be able to afford to drive that I’m not even sure the road salt is gonna be worth anything either."
"I’m not gonna give her credit for getting one thing back when we have thousands of things that people are having to pay more money for because she won’t talk back at Donald Trump."
Jackson later added, of Collins support for Trump's policies and appointees:
"Collins is like an arsonist who helped set the fire, and then she wants credit for bringing a cup of water to put it out."
People found Jackson's responses spot on.

Trump's war of words and tariffs with Canada is particularly hard on the state of Maine.
In 2025, 41% of goods exported by the state went to Canada—the highest share by percentage of any state. In 2024, Canadian travelers spent roughly $497.7 million in the state. Canadian cross-border shopping represented a vital share of total revenue for Maine merchants, particularly in northern border communities—where both Jackson and Collins are from—and coastal outlet destinations like L.L. Bean.
With Canadians boycotting both United States products and destinations, Maine has been heavily impacted economically.
Whether her support of Trump—voting for his whims 96% of the time—will cost Collins her Senate seat remains to be seen.
"Get married"
"Stay married"
"Have kids"
...shared a video from Fox News of the VP and his family deplaning in Alaska during a trip to stump for Republican Senate candidate Dan Sullivan.
Lulis captioned the video:
"Incredible. Vance arrives in Alaska carrying his newborn baby."
"He is single-handedly humanizing fatherhood."
"Kids aren’t burdens, they’re the future."
You can see her fawning post here:
Lulis shared more posts about the Vances from their jaunt to Alaska.
She shared a photo and video of the Second Family after they left their helicopter to board Air Force 2.
Both were again captioned with gushing accolades.
Others weren't quite as impressed as Lulis, finding carrying your own child to be the bare minimum and not worthy of the level of praise the pro-birth activist showered on Vance.

Interestingly, others criticized Vance for the same act Lulis wanted him canonized for.
Vance was called out for not taking safety precautions while walking down the steps from Air Force 2 with newborn Alec in Alaska mere hours after his wife almost fell while leaving the helicopter—something Lulis conveniently left out of her posts.
People pointed out that baby Alec may have been harmed if the Second Lady fell, but her carrying him strapped to her chest in a carrier would have offered some protection and kept him from falling to the ground as she put her hands out to catch herself.
If Vance had fallen deplaning Air Force 2, the baby would have been gravely injured if not killed, especially while Vance held him with only one hand at the top of the stairs or when he failed to hold onto the handrail as he descended.
