Objective:
To become a screen legend (scoring the role of Anakin Skywalker in the second and third installments of Star Wars prequels pretty much guarantees that). In the tense time before the official cast announcement was made, “I had this great secret I was so excited about, but I couldn’t tell anybody.”
Skills
Using his brooding eyes and killer smile to get parts; playing two junkies convincingly without being typecast.
Experience
2001: Life As a House, Sam Kimball.
A druggie goth kid who has a rocky relationship with his parents. “My character is an actor’s dream. It’s a real meaty role that allows me to show great range of emotion. But I can’t understand what would motivate a guy to wear blue eyeshadow and earrings.”
2000: TV’s Higher Ground, Scott Barringer.
A high school football captain and recovering drug addict.
1999: The Virgin Suicides, Jake Hill Conley.
One of the girls’ neighborhood suitors.
Education
Unionville High School’s drama department in Ontario, Canada.
Learned acting techniques from Kevin Kline on the set of Life As a House. “I would love to play his son for the rest of my life.”
Special Interests
Hockey and tennis; formed a Vancouver-based production company with older brother Tove. They plan on making a low-budget, coming-of-age move called Roadside Attractions.
