Joseph Gordon-Levitt was born on February 17, 1981 in Los Angeles, California, USA. His family was Jewish, although "not strictly religious." Joseph began his acting career at an early age: already in 1992, he played for Robert Redford in the film The River Waters Rolls (another name - Where the River Flows), and since 1996 he played in the popular television series Third Planet from the Sun, for which he received two awards from the influential Hollywood publication The Hollywood Reporter and a Screen Actors Guild Award. In addition, Joseph co-starred in the successful comedy 10 Reasons I Hate, a quasi-Shakespearean contemporary youth film, starring Heath Ledger and Julia Styles. In 2001, after the actor finished Columbia University and after the series "The Third Planet from the Sun" was taken off the air, Joseph Gordon-Levitt almost completely switched to filming for independent directors. In 2005, the actor received widespread public recognition and positive reviews from critics around the world for his role as a street hustler in the film "Mysterious Skin" by cult director Gregg Araki. A little later, Ryan Johnson's "Brick", a neo-noir university detective in which Joseph played a student investigating the mysterious death of his ex-girlfriend, was released for limited release. In the fall of 2006, the actor was busy filming an unnamed yet film project directed by Kimberly Pierce (on a military theme). In addition, Joseph can be seen as a hitman in the thriller "Killer," starring Diane Lane and Mickey Rourke.
In 2009, Joseph starred in the romantic comedy "500 Days of Summer" opposite Zooey Deschanel. Gordon-Levitt played the romantic in love Thomas Hanson, for which he was nominated for the Independent Spirit and Detroit Film Critics Society Awards .
In 2010, Gordon-Levitt's Inception, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, was released, and Hesher, starring Natalie Portman, in 2011.
