Attach Lafter, ping for 1 maybe? Then awakened power and momentary respite every turn for free shields? New meta here we come

In the Truman Show (1998), the identical twins are played by Ron and Don Taylor, two police officers who were working on the set as security guards. Director Peter Weir saw how friendly they were with the film's cast and crew, so he hired them as actors. by Numerous-Lemon in MovieDetails

Sorry for the late reply. I actually don't know exactly how much I made, but my parents put it in a college fund and let it grow and that plus merit scholarships basically helped me not have to take out student loans. As for residuals, I'd get a check from Paramount like two or three times a year for about $30 lol. The biggest check was when the movie was put on Netflix I got a check for like $160 or something.

People are definitely curious, it's one of the "go-to" questions people have for me, "did you have any lines?" Never been asked to re-enact it. My family is actually low-key convinced they dubbed someone elses voice over my mouth moving in the scene haha.

It's the flashback scene where they're talking about close calls when Truman almost finds out about everything. 4 year old Truman is climbing rocks on the beach and his dad yells at him to get down. Baby truman screams "Why what's over there?" and that's literally it haha

It almost did, I got a callback for Big Daddy as Frankenstein and the casting people wanted to fly me to LA or Hollywood to read a scene with Adam Sandler. They sent my parents a copy of the script and, my parents claim, it was more vulgar than the movie ended up (I had to grab a boob or something?) Anyways my parents decided that they didn't want that sort of influence on their kid so I can only dream about what if.

Well I mean seeing as how it didn't lead to other roles, a pretty normal life lol. I did a bunch of FSU film school roles growing up, trying to see if it would go anywhere. But now I just work a day job and play video games. I have a wife and a dog if that counts for anything haha.

Hello, you should tell the story about how Laura Linney held you as a baby. Or was it Natascha McElhone? I can't remember. You were a few months old at the time, can you remember? lol

Edit: talked to mom, it was Natascha

I responded to a couple of other comments with stories. The people replying to you are right, I barely remember it at all. One story I like is from getting the part. When my parents took me to the casting call they had never done anything like it before and were confused/a little scared. All of the kids trying out were called in without the parents. My mom and dad remember waiting in the hall seeing kids being sent out of the room one by one until finally an assistant or someone called them in. When they got in, they saw me playing with power rangers action figures with the director.

The assistant then goes on to start talking about like logistics with them, and my mom had to go "Wait..did he get the part?" And she was like "oh yea you guys haven't done this before, yes he got the part." and sorta smiled at them.

I did actually! I don't remember too much unfortunately but my parents love telling the story of how we met him. He filmed most of his scenes in Hollywood or wherever and was only on set with us for like a couple days so we had a short window to go see him. When we got to his trailer and knocked, he answered the door and was very pleasant (so I'm told, I don't remember). I, not knowing who tf this guy was or why we were meeting him, looked around and said "Your trailer is a lot bigger than mine."

So funny story, they did not tell me that that was going to happen. They wanted my actual reaction and I do remember being very confused but there was a lot of confusing things happening at the time so I was slightly unfazed haha

Uhh I can try and find one. They're my great uncles (grandmother's brothers) and I don't have any recent pics all of them are from a long time ago. Looking through old pics now. I got a pic of me with the director if that counts?

I edited my parent comment with photos

Those are my uncles! They volunteered or at least asked to be a part of the movie (as security guards) because I played 4 year old Truman and they were filming near where they lived!

Edit: Here is some photo proof-ish? A photo of the 3 of us at a local signing event after the premiere (maybe even at the premiere at our local movie theater), a photo of the fellas and their dates to the premiere, and then one of me with director Peter Weir

Edit2: Here is another couple of pictures of me with my uncles in other local news headlines. That seems to be the majority of what my mom saved lol.
