    Jacob Tremblay

    Straight outta Room, Jacob was a special guest invited by the New York Times to be part of the 10 best and award winning actors in their short film series where the performers were lifted on air in different themes. Jacob's theme was an astronaut floating on space separated from his helmet.

    This was one of Jacob's cutest performances he ever did, and he was just perfect. What's totally impressive was that Jacob was the only child here at 8 years old alongside legendary and also award winning actors during the making and the release of Room. Aside from his many awards for Room, this was also when Jacob became a legend! And it doesn't end here. He keeps doing great performances in mostly indie films, which is more impressive compared to most A-list actors his age.
