He appeared in the Academy Award-nominated movie Music of the Heart, played the title role in the film Igby Goes Down,[7] for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe Award, and played the lead role in The Mighty as Kevin Dillon.

He is one of the ensemble main cast members in the HBO series Succession. In 2018, 2020, and 2021, he was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor - Series, Miniseries or Television Film for his role as Roman Roy on the show.
