I suggest you recall several little-known roles of top actors whom the viewer simply could not identify because of their youth. 
Many of today's movie stars began their careers with minor roles as someone's on-screen children, not getting too much screen time and remaining in the shadow of their adult colleagues. Later, for fans of already matured actors, it becomes a discovery that their idols had so many “children’s” roles, and, moreover, not in the latest films.
1. Christian Bale in the film “Treasure Island” (1990) 
He played the main role in a TV movie, which to this day is quite unknown. Although one of the roles here was played by Christopher Lee.
2. Saoirse Ronan in the film “I'll Never Be Yours” (2007) 
She starred with Michelle Pfeiffer and Paul Rudd.
3. Scarlett Johansson in the film “A Fair Trial” (1995) 
She played in the thriller with Sean Connery, Laurence Fishburne and Ed Harris.
4. Joseph Gordon-Levitt in The Jury (1996) 
Starred with Alec Baldwin and Demi Moore.
5. Jake Gyllenhaal in City Slickers (1991) 
This was Gyllenhaal's film debut. Among the famous adult actors, Billy Crystal and Daniel Stern starred in the film.
6. Elijah Wood in the movie "War" (1994) 
Wood's on-screen father was Kevin Costner.
7. Kirsten Dunst in the movie Bonfire of the Vanities (1990) 
In addition to Dunst and Tom Hanks, the film stars Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman and Melanie Griffith.
8. Jodie Foster in Tom Sawyer (1973) 
Played the role of Becky Thatcher. In the year the film adaptation was released, no one knew that she would become the most famous actress from the film’s cast.
9. Sean Astin (second from left) in The Goonies (1985) 
Known for his role as Sam from The Lord of the Rings, the actor played his first role at the age of 13 - and immediately in the adventure comedy, in the creation of which Chris Columbus and Steven Spielberg participated.
10. Mila Kunis in the movie “Honey, We Shrunk Ourselves” (1997) 
Sequel to the famous films “Honey, I Shrunk the Kids” (1989) and “Honey, I Shrunk the Baby” (1992).
11. Aaron Taylor-Johnson in the film Shanghai Knights (2003) 
He played the role of young Charlie Chaplin in the same film with Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson.
12. Brie Larson (far right) in 13 Going on 30 (2004) 
The Captain Marvel star played a cameo role in the film with Jennifer Garner and Mark Ruffalo.
Bonus: Macaulay Culkin in Jacob's Ladder (1990) 
Macaulay was still a little younger than in Home Alone when he starred in the creepy mystical thriller starring Tim Robbins.
Bonus 2: Dakota Fanning in 24 (2002) 
In addition to this film with Charlize Theron, Dakota Fanning starred in a huge number of films where she was given a “children’s role.” She was No. 1 on Hollywood lists of child actresses her age. It's very simple: if a little girl was needed in the film, they took Dakota Fanning.
