Child Actors Who Played Very Adult Roles As Kids

- By

Jodie Foster

Playing a prostitute in a Martin Scorsese movie will make Hollywood take notice, especially if that person is a 12-year-old child star. Jodie Foster’s portrayal of streetwise streetwalker Iris in 1976’s Taxi Driver earned the actress an Academy award nomination. Foster received her first Oscar as a rape victim in 1988’s The Accused. Three years later, Foster would win another one, this time for her role as an FBI trainee in the psycho-thriller Silence of the Lambs.
