Someone else got it earlier in the thread. As a kid I thought he was such a good actor and was surprised he didn’t become the next Macaulay Culkin or Ryan Gosling. He quit acting for many years, then won an Oscar for his first role in decades as an adult, which is so cool.

Looks like she's still busy. She's Swedish so we may not get as much of her as they do over there.

She's still boring as all get out. Her best role was that of a robot. She nailed it.
Agreed. Also she is not Swedish, she's Dutch!
Dp. I'm sure you all are the life of the party!

Haley Joel Osment was huge as a child star. He’s worked since then but not on such a grand scale.

Sadly, she did not fall off the face of the earth totally, just off the acting world.
Are you forgetting the Marvel movies?
She was also the mom in that really funny Netflix series (the candidate?).. and she was in a bunch of Wes Anderson movies. She’s had a respectable career appearing in stuff that tickles her fancy like a guest spot on glee. I think she works as much as she wants and probably turns down a lot.
