It's not the chick from The League. That is who I thought it was.

Chloe Grace Moretz

Oh great choice! She kinda slipped up with 5th wave but she's definitely gonna be a good one. Her roles in Kick Ass and Let Me In (American remake of the Swedish original "Let the Right One In") were awesome!

one of these is not like the others. She's a terrible actress.

She's also only 19. Bruce Lee wasn't much of a method actor himself. And even then, acting acumen isn't a prereq. (I think she's a decent actress and her role in Let Me In was really good. As good as any 13 yr old I'd seen)

Oh, I'm sorry. I thought the title of this thread was "Your favorite successful child star." I didn't realize I was posting on the "Sloan Kettering's list of GREAT child actors" thread.

My mistake.

You trolling?

They're pretty damn successful, just not as actresses anymore.

I had a crush on them for most of my childhood. Until one of them turned into a coke fiend.

Jenny Lewis was a child actress in movies like The Wizard and Troop Beverly Hills. But when she got older she was the lead singer of a band called Rilo Kiley and is now a solo artist. She's an Indie darling, but she's definitely pretty talented.

Ralph Macchio. Starred in one of the GOAT movies. Was 23 in the movie but was still a child, I am assuming due to hypogonadism. In long lasting marriage with pretty woman and has several children. 55 years old but looks 35. Killing it in all aspects of life.

Wonder what these guys are up to nowadays...

Wait, Ralph wasn't a child actor though.

I'm old enough to remember seeing him on "Eight Is Enough"

He was like a child in Karate Kid. Sure, he was 23, but he was a convincing 13 or 14 yrs old at best, which is about when Leo came on the scene, right? I know it's a stretch but I was just watching Karate Kid last night and it amazes me how much that movie stands the test of time.

Christian Bale also had a small but significant role as "the boy" in Kenneth Branagh's Henry V.

Well sure, Karate Kid is the timeless tale of an adolescent boy being mentored in the ways of the tea ceremony by an older, mysterious bachelor who hangs around the apartment complex.

And how said older, mysterious bachelor invents new and impressive ways for the adolescent boy to perform all of his home improvement projects.
