Huntington shifted genres and delivered a respectable (if unremarkable) lead performance under the aegis of another actor-turned-helmer, William Katt, in the family-oriented coming-of-age drama River's End (2005). Unfortunately, it received mostly negative reviews and severely limited distribution that kept it out of most mainstream theaters. In 2006, however, Huntington earned greater recognition with a memorable turn as newspaper photographer Jimmy Olsen in the blockbuster Superman Returns. In fall 2007, he took on a regular role as a Neanderthal on the bizarre ad campaign-turned-sitcom Cavemen. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi
