My Take
Jaeden Martell is the rare child actor who never curdled into a precocious adult on screen. From the trembling resolve he brought to It to the quiet menace of Defending Jacob, he picks roles with surprising taste for someone so young. What draws me to him is the interiority, the sense that something is always working behind the eyes rather than being performed for the camera. Born in 2003, he has decades ahead, and I suspect his most interesting work will come as he grows into weathered, complicated adult parts. This is a talent built to age well.
