With his smoldering good looks and sex appeal, he was a much sought-after young actor during his youth. Though he was predominantly known for his looks, Josh Hartnett went on to prove that he had the skills to deliver powerful performances as well. During his high school days, acting was not the first career option in the mind of this athletic youngster as he was more into sports. He had not even thought about performing on stage until an injury forced him to quit his sporting activities. The dejected teenager was encouraged by his aunt to try his hand at acting. He landed the part of ‘Huckleberry Finn’ in a stage production of ‘Tom Sawyer’ and was soon fascinated by acting. As a 19-year-old, he appeared in the ABC drama ‘Cracker,’ where he got noticed for his great looks. His first feature film role was in the horror flick ‘Halloween H20: 20 Years Later,’ which established the young man as a teen heartthrob. More film offers followed and he soon became a famous figure in Hollywood.
