Brat Pack

At Oscar Jacobson we now introduce the new Brat Pack of 2024. Young and talented Swedish actors that will shape the future for many years to come. Samuel Astor, Victor Iván, Maxwell Cunningham, Björn Elgerd, Philip Oros and Linus Kajman Gustafsson. We dressed them for a gala premiere and took them to dinner at restaurant KB in Stockholm. They transmit the energy and style of the new era.

Two of the most legendary actor "packs" of all time in Hollywood are the Rat Pack and the Brat Pack. Despite emerging in different eras, these groups of Hollywood icons have left lasting imprints on the entertainment industry and popular culture.

The Rat Pack: A Symbol of Cool and Class.

In the 1950s and early 1960s, the Rat Pack epitomized style, sophistication, and undeniable charisma. Consisting primarily of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Joey Bishop, and Peter Lawford. The group dominated the stages, bright lights, and social scenes. The Rat Pack represented a time when entertainers were larger-than-life figures who lived as stylishly as they performed. Together, they paved the way for artists to break out of traditional entertainment moulds and embrace multifaceted careers that transcended film, music, and television.

The Brat Pack: Defining Youth Culture in the 1980s

In the 1980s, a new group of young actors took Hollywood by storm. Tom Cruise, Patrick Swayze, Rob Lowe, and Emilio Estevez became cultural icons almost overnight. The Brat Pack became inseparable in the minds of fans. Their collective roles challenged societal norms and defined the 1980s youth culture. It was more than just a moment in cinematic history, the Brat Pack left a lasting legacy, inspiring countless films, TV shows, and series centred on youth themes, shaping modern perspectives on adolescence and adulthood.
