Devon Sawa Reminds Millennials They're ‘Traumatized’ by 'Final Destination'
Steve Granitz/WireImageDevon Sawa is reminding Final Destination fans they can’t cheat death. “Driving behind this log truck carrying Christmas trees and thought I’d wish you all a Happy Holidays!” Sawa, 45, wrote via Instagram on Thursday, November 30, alongside a photo of a log truck on the highway. Sawa starred as Alex in the first Final Destination film, which premiered in 2000.
