Joseph Gordon-Levitt was in the 2012 flick Looper where he played the younger version of the Bruce Willis character and he did an exceptional job capturing the mannerisms, under the surface tension and energy of Bruce. Good casting choice. Next question: how how much of the darker side of Carson will they choose to explore?
