In his short career, 13-year-old Josh Hutcherson has worked with many of Hollywood's finest actors and directors.  He can be seen this April 28th in  Sony Pictures’ “RV,” co-starring as Robin Williams’ son for director Barry Sonnenfeld. Josh joins the family on vacation in an RV where Robin’s inexperience and ulterior motives make for a wild adventure.  Also scheduled for a 2006 release is the Fox/New Regency film  “Firehouse Dog,” with Josh starring as a young man who happens upon a stranded Hollywood stunt dog whose unique abilities ultimately make him a canine firehouse hero.

Hutcherson just completed production in the starring role of the Walden Media/Walt Disney Pictures feature “Bridge To Terabithia” which filmed in New Zealand.  Based on Katherine Paterson's novel and directed by Gabor Csupo, the film tells the powerful story of a boy (Hutcherson) whose life is changed forever when he befriends the class outsider - who happens to be a girl (AnnaSophia Robb).  Together they create the world of Terabithia, an imaginary kingdom filled with giants and trolls and all manner of magical beings.

In 2005, Hutcherson starred in the critically acclaimed Fox/New Regency film “Little Manhattan.” Directed by Mark Levin and Jennifer Flackert, the film co-stars Bradley Whitford and Cynthia Nixon.
