Filmography: Bright’s first acting job was in a commercial for Telus, which was soon followed by a guest appearance on the television series, Higher Ground.

After a supporting part in The Butterfly Effect, Bright’s first major role was in Godsend, a horror film co-starring Robert De Niro; the film was released in April 2004 to mixed reviews. In his next film, Birth, he played a ten-year-old boy who claims to be the reincarnation of a woman’s (Nicole Kidman) deceased husband.

He was instead cast in several Hollywood films, all of which were released in 2006, including Thank You for Smoking, Ultraviolet, and the action-thriller named Running Scared (starring Paul Walker). He also starred in X-Men: The Last Stand, where he played the mutant Leech, who has the anti-mutant antibody around which the film focuses.

His appeared in the TV series The 4400 in the episode “The Wrath Of Graham” as a high school student named Graham Holt who develops an ability after injecting himself with Promicin. He has also played a host carrier for a cure for humanity in more than one movie.
