Biography

Rory Culkin is an American actor who started out alongside his older brothers, among them Macaulay and Kieran Culkin, typically as younger versions of their characters. Born in New York City, he appeared as a baby in a photograph in The Good Son (1993) and played the young Richie in Richie Rich and ten-year-old Igby in Igby Goes Down (2002). His breakthrough came with You Can Count on Me (2000), which earned him praise and a Young Artist Award. He then starred in Signs (2002) and moved toward independent films, taking a lead in Mean Creek (2004), whose youth cast won an Independent Spirit Award, plus roles in The Chumscrubber (2005), Down in the Valley (2005) and Hick (2011). Lords of Chaos (2018) cast him as Euronymous, and his title role in Gabriel brought a Gotham Independent Film Award nomination. He has also appeared on television in Waco and Under the Banner of Heaven.
