The Oscar nominated actor seems to have piled on the pounds for the role, and was spotted waddling to his soapbox as he got ready to shoot scenes in the Downtown area.

If anything, the 26-year-old seems to have become an even better actor with age, looking thoroughly despicable as he gave a speech in front of a collage glorifying the Holocaust.

Kevin Smith is directing the picture, which is being billed as a female led action film.

In a stunning display of Hollywood nepotism, Johnny Depp is starring in the movie alongside his daughter Lily-Rose, while Smith's own child Harley Quinn is also playing a main character.

The corny tale sees the girls play 15-year-old yoga enthusiasts who work at a convenience store in Manitoba, Canada.

Haley certainly did not need any help in becoming a big time child star in his own right.

After starting his career in a Pizza Hut commercial he appeared in a slew of show's before beating off stiff competition to win his breakthrough part as Cole Sear in The Sixth Sense, in which he spoke to an unknowingly dead child psychologist played by Bruce Willis throughout.

At the age of just 11 he was nominated for a best supporting actor for his turn, and made further acclaimed apperances in films such as Steven Spielberg's Artificial Intelligence: A.I, Pay It Forward and Secondhand Lions, before taking a break to focus on his education.
