The Transformation Of Josh Peck From Childhood To 34 Years Old

Aside from his Nickelodeon fame, Josh Peck found overwhelming success in his acting career. While acting during his Nickelodeon days, the actor made his film debut in the 2000 comedy "Snow Day." Additionally, he starred in a number of films including "Max Keeble's Big Move", "Spun", and "Mean Creek", for which he received critical acclaim for his role as George Tooney. The star also continued appearing in children's television shows and films, including "Ice Age: The Meltdown" and "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" (via IMDb).

Not every young actor has an easy transition from childhood stardom to adult roles, but Peck's experience seemed pretty swift. His role in the 2008 film "The Wackness" further emphasized his ability to appeal to older audiences and his talents as a versatile actor. "My tastes have matured. It was never really a conscious decision. I'm forever in debt to Nickelodeon. It made me who I am today," Peck explained during a July 2008 interview with Cinema Blend as he promoted the film. "Inevitably, this isn't exactly a movie for kids. I was 15 when the show started, and the people that were watching it were 12. Now I'm 21, and they're 18."

He added, "And the kids that are too young, and don't want to see my naked a** onscreen, I hope they check it out on DVD in a couple of years. It is a leap of faith, though, that I'm taking in my audience, and I hope they take with me. It is uncharted territory, and I don't know what the trajectory is going to be."
