Justin’s Personal Favorite, Attack of the Growling Eyeball

It’s not a film that Justin Martin has acted but the title of a book that he loves to read. It was revealed in the just concluded Los Angeles Film Festival, which he attended. As part of this festival, its organizers had arranged a ‘Family Day Book Reading’ event. Justin took part in it along with Kim Wayens. The book he chose was ‘Attack of the Growling Eyeballs (Who Shrunk Daniel Funk?)’. It was an amusing selection from Justin as it is a fun and delightful book. This book is written by none other than Lin Oliver who is not only a seasoned children’s book writer but also the successful producer of several family movies. ‘Attack of the Growling Eyeballs’ narrates the story of a boy named Daniel Funk who one day finds himself shrunk down to the size of his toe. Later he realizes that shrinking runs in his family and during his escapades discovers his twin brother, Pablo Funk, and also the secret behind his shrinking.

The Young Face of Popular Stars

Two movies with very intriguing storylines, are hitting the theatres this autumn. Joe Wright’s ‘The Soloist’ and Gary Fleder’s ‘The Express’. Both of them have as protagonists, two very popular African American actors. While Jamie Foxx stars in the former, ‘Finding Forrester’ star Rob Brown takes the lead in the latter. But what’s most common between the two movies? You’ll observe the presence of young Justin Martin in both the flicks. He plays the teenage version of the stars. You’ll be amazed to see the uncanny resemblance he carries with both the actors. Fits the bill perfectly. We’ll probably see him taking on the mantle and filling in their large shoes as an adult actor very soon.

Justin Martin- A Child Prodigy

It’s the age of hybrid kids. Really! Children have their five fingers dipped in five different things now. They want to be a jack of all and a master of all as well. When we marvel at the child actors emoting like their adult counterparts, we think it’s so commendable for their age. But reading a biography on some child actors proves our ignorance that they are skilled in a lot more than just acting. This space talks about Justin Martin , who is one really special child actor. He’s 14, and has been in the acting business since seven. Look at the list at his credits in such a short span; in television, he’s been a part of episodic roles in ‘The Bernie Mac Show’ and ‘Malcolm in the Middle’, and later in Nickelodeon’s ‘Drake & Josh’, and CBS’s ‘Judging Amy’. On big screen, Justin’s in the cast of movies like ‘Doing Hard Time’, ‘Black Water Transit’, and upcoming flicks like ‘The Express’ and ‘The Soloist’. Justin has also done theatre. He played young Simba in Broadway’...
