Since being one of the three Catch That Kid younglings along with Corbin Bleu and Kristin Stewart, we’ve not really seen much of Max Thieriot. Sure he was in Jumper (as the young Hayden Christensen), but Corbin Bleu went to High School Musical and Kristin Stewart is gonna be in Twilight (though, she was also in Jumper).
I actually took notice of Max’s acting in Jumper and you can say I prefer seeing him more than Shia LaBeouf, Daniel Radcliffe and Zac Efron just because I don’t like being too patronizing of the teenage whoredom mainstream. I had meant to write about Max in his role in 25/8, a thriller set for release in 2009 whom he co-stars with Denzel Whitaker - the awesome young dude in The Great Debaters.
News today was even greater for Max as he found himself landing the role of Chuck Russel’s Prodigy.
“Thieriot will play William Cooley, a rebellious student at an elite boarding school producing world leaders with the help of pharmaceuticals. Three days before graduation, several of its alumni are murdered, and William is implicated. As the school valedictorian investigates William, the two eventually become reluctant allies and targets while uncovering a conspiracy behind the crimes.” [source]
