quote:Good answer. Really most actors start out similarly. You get some shitty role for being good looking and having at least some acting ability and then it goes from there. Pitt, Bale, Ethan Hawke, Ryan Gosling, etc. I'd almost say Dicaprio is the exception because he was considered a great child actor. Some of them it's hard to say if they were always a great actor having to do crappy roles or if they developed. Gosling's first big role in Remember the Titans was awful but I think he was already a great actor at that time.
Christian Bale

Bale was in Empire of the Sun when he was 13-14 I think. Then was in Newsies and Little Women just a few years later.

The obvious answer to me is Leonardo Dicaprio.
Jesus, girls were sliding down the streets over him back when Titanic came out.

Nope. He was a great actor out the gate. Dicaprio was nominated for an Academy Award for his role in Gilbert Grape.
Dear God! You must have also missed his wonderful roles on Growing Pains and Roseanne. Not to mention his stirring performance in Critters 3.
All kidding aside. Leo was solid out the gate. This Boy's Life, Grape, Basketball Diaries.

Marky Mark is the correct answer.

Gilbert Grape says hi.
And the correct answer is Ahhhnold.
