Jansen Panettiere

The younger brother of actress and screen heartthrob Hayden Panettiere (Ally McBeal), Jansen Panettiere began accumulating acting credits as a child star a half-decade after his older sibling. Following a brief assignment working on the pilot of the popular Faith Ford/Kelly Ripa sitcom Hope & Faith (2003), Panettiere joined many of his young colleagues in Hollywood by signing on to do a project with the iconic Disney Channel, opposite his sister: the family-friendly military drama Tiger Cruise (2004). He voiced the character of Young Rodney in the 2005 Fox Animation feature Robots (2005), then signed up for another animated outing, voicing Truman X in the Cartoon Network series The X's (2005). In 2008, Panettiere starred opposite Clifton Collins Jr. and Cheech Marin in the period sports comedy The Perfect Game.
