TMZ has learned actor Brad Renfro is dead.

The 25-year-old actor was found dead at his Los Angeles home this morning. The cause of death has not been determined, however, Renfro had a history of drug abuse.

Sources tell us Renfro, who had starring roles in "The Client" and "Apt Pupil" had been working valiantly to stay clean, especially since this summer. Renfro had been convicted of several drug offenses, including attempted heroin possession.

Renfro had been filming a movie with Winona Ryder and Billy Bob Thornton. The movie, "The Informers," just wrapped.

Renfro has had a rough time personally since moving from Tennessee to Los Angeles. His parents split, and we're told he did not have real guidance from adults as he tried navigating the treacherous movie industry.

As a skater, Bowman was known for his showmanship. He skated in the Olympics in 1988 and 1992. He had previously been in treatment for drug problems.

Story developing ...

As you may have noticed on the live feed, TMZ was officially booted from Ike Turner's funeral -- and we left a good shot in the city!

Maybe it's something we said ... or wrote. Earlier in the day, we posted video of Ike marrying a woman who claims to be Ike's other wife. But here's the problem, Ike's other other wife is in the church right now -- probably a little pissed off.

As to whether Audrey and Ike were actually married -- we have a videotape of the supposed ceremony from Audrey's MySpace.
