He left Disney and checked into the "White Lotus."

Adam DiMarco's past is making fans of the HBO drama lose their minds. On "White Lotus," DiMarco plays recent Stanford grad Albie Di Grasso who is on a family trip with his father Dominic Di Grasso (Michael Imperioli) and grandfather Bert Di Grasso (F. Murray Abraham), but it was only a decade ago that he starred in the Disney movie "Radio Rebel" with Debby Ryan.

A short clip from the 2012 television movie showing DiMarco playing the guitar and singing — resurfaced on Twitter, leading one fan of "White Lotus" to joke, "Deleted scene from the finale. Albie steals Mia's job," while the Twitter account for IMDB wrote, "Albie what are you doingggg" and another account chimed in, "My first thought seeing him in the white lotus was litterally 'wasn't he the creep in that one disney channel movie?'"

"Radio Rebel" was DiMarco's first starring role. But how are fans going to react when they uncover DiMarco's past roles on "The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina," "Charmed," "Zapped" (alongside Zendaya) and four seasons of "The Magicians"?

Another thing about DiMarco that has fans of "White Lotus" scratching their heads in surprise is his age. While he plays a 22-year-old on the HBO series, in real life, he is 32 years old.

One fan commented, "Wait Adam DiMarco is 32???!!!?! He looks 22!!!," while another said, "I wasn't trying to look Adam DiMarco like that bc I thought he was 23-24 but he's actually 32!"
