Jimmy Bennett Movies
A child star well before he reached his teens,
Jimmy Bennett began his career with appearances in commercials, then moved into feature work with a litany of roles in A-list Hollywood releases. Projects included a plum role in the
Eddie Murphy-headlined family comedy
Daddy Day Care (2003, as the highest-profiled of
Murphy's young charges -- a little boy named Tony who insists on being called "The Flash" and shows up at day care each day dressed in a superhero outfit); one of the voices in
Robert Zemeckis' CG-animated Christmas movie
The Polar Express (2004); a little boy trapped with his mother (
Jacinda Barrett) on a capsized ocean liner in
Poseidon (2006); and the child version of Admiral James T. Kirk in the
J.J. Abrams remake
Star Trek (2009). ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide
