Career Beginnings

Max’s career started in the early 2000s, when he started attending improvisation classes organized by Don Gibble, a talent manager. After this he soon secured a modeling gig with GAP, and featured in a couple of short films, before he made his acting debut. It was in 2004 that he was selected for the part of Gus in the film “Catch That Kid”, starring next to Kristen Stewart and Corbin Bleu.

Quotes

#Quote1I don't like going to dinner by myself, I'll call for delivery before I do that. It's awkward if you're at a table all alone. I'm sure nobody even notices, but there's something about it.2[about seeing himself in the movies] It almost seems like it's not really me. If you screw up, you see the tiniest little mistake that no one else will see. You'll totally be like, 'Wow, that sucks, I hope nobody else notices!'3[his hair for the movie (2005)] "They bleached it a ton of times for the movie, I'm surprised I still have hair left!"4At first, I didn't like coming down to Los Angeles at all. It's like everything's black and white compared to where I live out in the middle of nowhere. There's like 400 people in my town!
