Although his parents never had a thing for show business, they let him get directly into show business at this early age. “My parents always gave me great support,” Breslin later revealed. “They had no interest in acting or show business nonsense. That was cool.”
Breslin became incredibly productive and appeared in at least 50 commercials just before he turned 4. The commercials were for people like McDonald’s and Life Cereals. At the age of 4, he made his small-screen debut and appeared in the first season of the ABC sitcom Soul Man. In the following years, Spencer took guest roles in shows like Law & Order and Trinity. He also had a role in the 1999 miniseries Stephen King: Storm of the Century.
The new millennium brought great things for Breslin, whose career took off thanks to his role as an autistic child in Disney’s The Kid starring Bruce Willis. Spencer beat a thousand other kids in America in that role.
Film director Jon Turteltaub revealed that Spencer kept making Bruce laugh during the auditions. Bruce’s role as Rusty Duritz earned him the first prize of his career – the Young Artist’s Award 2000 for the best performance in a feature film by a young actor aged ten years or younger. He was also nominated for other coveted awards, including the 2001 Saturn Prize for the best performance by a younger actor.
In addition to the awards and nominations, Spencer has received many rave reviews from film critics. Disney’s The Kid was awarded $110 million at the box office worldwide.
Spencer continued his major breakthrough with films such as Meet the Parents, The Ultimate Christmas Present, The Ultimate Christmas Present (2002), Mom’s on Strike (2002), You Wish (2003), and others.
Breslin received much critical acclaim for his role in the Christmas movie The Cat in the Hat (2003), which starred Alec Baldwin. In 2004, he starred alongside his sister in Raising Helen (2004). Although Breslin had a promising future in Hollywood, his activity began to wane from 2006 onwards as he concentrated on the roles behind the scenes. His most recent acting activities include Perfect Sisters (2014) and Some Kind of Hate (2016).
Breslin’s films have collectively grossed over $1.3 billion at box offices worldwide. His net worth is estimated at 5 million dollars.
