Primal Fear was on some channel last night and then started thinking about that it was Edward Norton's first movie. (first film role??)
But for a first starring or supporting role its memorable.
These are some that came to mind:
Robert DeNiro (Taxi Driver) Jodie Foster (Taxi Driver??) Will Smith (Independence Day) Hailee Stansfield (True Grit) Quvenzhane Wallis (The Beasts of the Southern Wild) Jaime Foxx (Any Given Sunday)
