|  | Alex Pettyfer mini-bio:
AlexPettyfer began his career as a child fashion model at the age of seven,
modelling for labels such as GAP, after meeting Ralph Lauren in a toy store in
New York City. He attended Twickenham Preparatory School in Hampton and later the Mall, a small private school in Twickenham and as a schoolboy, performed in plays, including in the role of Willy Wonka in a production Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
In 2005, Pettyfer, after ending his modelling career, made his professional acting
debut in the British television production of Tom Brown's Schooldays, playing the lead character, Tom Brown; he received positive reviews for the role. In June 2005,
he was cast in his most prominent role so far, that of teenage MI6 spy Alex Rider
in the film Stormbreaker, based on the novel by Anthony Horowitz. He was one
of 500 who auditioned for the role. Pettyfer chose to appear in the film over a role
in the upcoming film Eragon, noting that he preferred Stormbreaker because
it would be filmed in England and the Isle of Man while Eragon would film in the
Czech Republic, and Pettyfer is afraid of flying.
Stormbreaker was released on July 21, 2006 in the United Kingdom, and will
be released on October 6, 2006 in the United States and on September 21,
2006 in Australia.
