The American actor Logan Lerman, despite his 24 years, has already managed to gain immense popularity. He showed interest in filming in the cinema at the age of five, and began acting from the age of eight. The filmography of Logan Lerman currently has more than 50 films. Let us dwell on the most significant of them.
Carier start
In 2000, the action movie "Patriot" by Roland Emmerich and the melodrama "What Women Want" by Nancy Myers came out, in both films the young actor Logan Lerman played small roles. Films in which the young man played supporting roles did not bring him fame. The next picture in Logan's career, which is worth paying attention to, is the butterfly effect thriller.
It was thanks to him that the 12-year-old actor gained worldwide fame and became one of the most sought-after young actors in Hollywood.
Work with the stars
In the comedy of Wil Schrider's "The Scream of Owls", Logan Lerman got the main role after a long casting. Roles in the Western train to Yuma and the thriller Fatal Number 23 brought real fame to 15-year-old Logan. In the first of these, the actor worked with Hollywood stars of the first magnitude: Russell Crowe and Christian Bale. Both the film "Train to Yuma" and the play of the young actor were very highly praised by critics.
As for the movie "Fatal Number 23", on which Logan worked with Jim Carrey and Joel Schumacher, he was mercilessly defeated by reviews of experienced critics. But the reason for this was the weak plot of the picture, and not the acting. However, the audience received the picture warmly.
Two years later, the filmography of Logan Lerman was replenished with the fantastic thriller "Gamer" by Mark Neveldine. On the set, the actor met Gerard Butler, Alison Loman, Amber Valletta.
Main roles
In 2007, Chris Columbus, who worked on the first two parts of Potteriana, the films Home Alone and Home Alone 2, took on the adaptation of the science fiction novel Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief. For technical reasons, the process of preparing for filming was delayed, and the casting began only at the end of 2008. Logan Lerman got the role of Percy Jackson - a teenager who, by the will of fate, is involved in a very dangerous adventure - saving the world from the Greek gods. For this role, the actor was nominated for the Saturn Award, but, unfortunately, he did not get the statuette. But the box office film, which amounted to more than 225 million dollars, was impressive.
In 2011, Logan got the lead role in Paul Anderson's comedy action movie The Musketeers, a free adaptation of Dumas novel. The actor’s partners in the frame were Mila Jovovich, Orlando Bloom, Christoph Waltz.
In 2012, the filmography of Logan Lerman was replenished with the melodrama "It Is Good to Be Quiet." The actor played Charlie, an introverted teenager who is trying to figure out himself, find his place in society, find love and understanding of others. The director of the picture was Stephen Chbowski, he is also the author of the literary source.
Two years later, Logan again had the opportunity to work with Russell Crowe on the set of Darren Aranofsky's Noah, known for his unusual directorial vision (remember, for example, his Fountain or Black Swan). The film is an adaptation of the famous biblical story about the Flood. Russell Crowe was approved for the role of Noah, and Logan Lerman received the role of his son Ham. The film also starred Jennifer Connelly, Emma Watson and Anthony Hopkins.
