Despite his success — and the paydays that came with it — Osment’s parents always made sure he knew he could walk away from acting whenever he wanted.
As a teenager, Haley Joel Osment already had a career that other actors would kill for. He had worked with Steven Spielberg, been nominated for an Oscar at the age of 11 and performed alongside some of the biggest stars in Hollywood.that came with it — Osment says his parents always made sure he knew he could walk away from acting whenever he wanted."Both of my parents had a very healthy suspicion of Hollywood and the industry," he recently told CNBC Make It.
The breakout star of"The Sixth Sense" didn't mind stepping away from the cameras that had been a regular part of his life since he was five years old. In fact, he got as far away from them as possible, crossing the country to attend New York University. Now that he's spent the vast majority of his life in the industry, including a recent turn in Zoë Kravitz's"Blink Twice", Osment says he occasionally wonders what his career and bank account might look like if he had worked throughout his college years.
Osment has worked steadily since college, and the Academy Award nominee has his sights set on adding new titles to his job description: namely writer and director.
