Jack and Noah posted their "superhero swag" rendition of Bieber's hit single in October 2012—and fans recently re-discovered it. The video, which has over 81,000 views on YouTube, features Jack Griffo and his BFF Noah as the two dressed up as Batman and Superman while dancing along to Justin's hit song for the first part of the music video. In the second half, they just seem to be running around LA with a really shaky camera as they pretend to be two of our favorite superheroes. The music video has all the elements of a teen-created music special: the Apple Photo Booth filters, a kaleidoscope transition, blurry camera work, and some earnest, self-choreographed dance moves in the streets of Burbank, California.
Check out the video below:
Centineo and Griffo weren't exactly unknowns when they made the video; they were both child stars. While Griffo went on to star in Nickelodeon's The Thundermans, which started airing in 2013 and had its final episode air this Mayhttp://nickalive.blogspot.com/2018/05/nickelodeon-usa-to-premiere-final-five.html, Centineo appeared on Disney Channel's Austin and Ally in 2012, so they were technically working for rival networks (although Noah did guest star on an episode of Nickelodeon's Marvin Marvin).
According to Jack's Instagram page, they really close friends back in those days. He also has a bunch of photos of them just hanging out together over the years.
The two of them are still best buds and even recently hung out together along with Dumplin' star Luke Benward and The Killing star Sterline Beaumon.
If you're wondering what Jack has been up to lately, he's also become a Netflix star and is now starring in Alexa & Katie along with Mighty Med star Paris Berelc. Noah will also be appearing in the upcoming movie The Stand-In, and starring the the sequel to To All The Boys I've Loved Before.
In fact, both actors are 22 now, and both have Netflix gigs where they play the cute love interest. "Boyfriend" dancers become Netflix boyfriends. Call it fate.
Given this video has amassed more than 81,000 views since it was posted in 2012, it's pretty clear Centineo and Griffo's star power was pretty evident, even through the blurry lens of an Apple Photo Booth filter.
With an To All the Boys sequel coming out soon, maybe we'll finally see these BFFs on the screen together? Let's hope so!
