Josh Hutcherson (born 1992) is an American actor and filmmaker. He began his acting career at a young age with minor roles in TV commercials and pilot episodes. As he gained experience, he began taking on bigger roles, notably in Zathura (2005), RV (2006), Bridge to Terabithia (2007), Journey to the Center of the Earth (2008), and The Kids Are All Right (2010). Over the course of his young career, he picked up three individual Young Artist Awards. Hutcherson was cast as Peeta Mellark in the science fiction adventure film series, The Hunger Games, in 2011, which has released films annually from 2012 to 2014 and is considered by many to be his breakthrough role. He has also taken on filmmaking and voiceover work, earning credits as an executive producer for Detention (2011), The Forger (2012), and Escobar: Paradise Lost (2015), and most recently voice acting in 2013's Epic, which became his most commercially successful film except for The Hunger Games series. An active member in the LGBT community, Hutcherson advocates the gay–straight alliance chapter called "Straight But Not Narrow." He received the GLAAD Vanguard Award in 2012 for his efforts in promoting equal rights for LGBT people. (Full article...)

I agree with Krimuk, I think you should wait until October.♦ Dr. Blofeld 11:24, 14 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm not too familiar with TFA. Do all actors normally only get featured on their birthdays? I hope that's not that case, as I won't be editing around that time this year and I don't think anyone else would nominate it then. Gloss 17:15, 13 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
TFA's on artists tend to get more views on their birthdays. Anyway, if you won't be around in October, I'd be happy to nominate it again around that time. -- KRIMUK90  07:04, 14 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, but if possible I'd like to see it make the main page sometime within the next month or so, so I can actually see it on the main page after all of the work that went into it before heading off the 'pedia for a few months! :) Gloss 07:24, 14 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - Interesting article. --BabbaQ (talk) 18:26, 13 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: There's a lot of filmy stuff coming up at the moment, and it won't really help to shift Gyllenhall to later in the month. I'll keep a watchful eye on proximities – and hope that no further date-related film, TV or actor articles come up in March. There's nothing particularly notable about actors' birthdays, unless they are special in some way, e.g. a 21st, or a 100th, etc Brianboulton (talk) 20:25, 13 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose- Ten days between actor biographies, and 2 current nominations of film-related articles, means that film will be over represented. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:35, 13 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
