In 1997, he starred as Zander in Starship Troopers.
He later transitioned to producing tv shows and movies. His most recent projects were the Gothic horror movie The Dreadful, starring Sophie Turner, Kit Harington, and Marcia Gay Harden, and the crime comedy Riff Raff starring Jennifer Coolidge, Ed Harris, Gabrielle Union, Lewis Pullman, and Bill Murray. He has three upcoming movies which he acted in, as well as a movie he executive produced starring Chris Hemsworth and Zazie Beetz.
