Here's some information about Cameron Bright's role, as well as his career.


For the role of Nick's son, Joey, Reitman cast Cameron Bright, who had showcased his astounding maturity and talent in GODSEND, BIRTH, and THE BUTTERFLY EFFECT: "Cameron Bright is a really impressive young man and a great actor. He has a tricky role: Joey is a twelve year-old who says pretty complicated things. What's amazing about Cameron is that he's a little man. He can say these things and have them come off pretty truthful."

Bright was happy to be in a comedy for a change: "I have played darker roles. I played a kid who got killed and cloned. This is a comedy and I really like that. In this one, I get to play a normal kid."

"Really, all Joey wants is to get to know his father and what his father does. He thinks that it's weird that the world is mean to his father just for doing his job," Bright says of his character.

CAMERON BRIGHT (Joey Naylor)
Though only 12 years old, Cameron Bright has already starred opposite some of the biggest names in Hollywood. He is currently shooting Fox's franchise film series X-MEN 3 that Brett Ratner is directing. He will be seen in theatres in January starring opposite Paul Walker in Wayne Kramer's RUNNING SCARED for New Line. Cameron also has Kurt Wimmer's ULTRAVIOET in the can for Sony in which he stars opposite Mila Jovovich. Last year Cameron starred opposite Nicole Kidman in Jonathan Glazer‘s BIRTH for New Line. His performance garnered him a Broadcast Critics Choice Award for Best Young Actor. Cameron also starred opposite Robert DeNiro, Greg Kinnear and Rebecca Romijn-Stamos in GODSEND for Lions' Gate.
