Career
In 2005, Lewis played a young Bruce Wayne in the film Batman Begins, whose adult counterpart was Christian Bale.[1][2] The American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry observed that Lewis played "an intense and appealing" child,[3] while Orlando Weekly opined that the actor "makes a strong impression as the 8-year-old Bruce, leaving a firm foundation for Bale's haunted-scion act."[4]
Lewis played Charlie Raphael in the 2005 drama film Asylum, the son of characters played by Hugh Bonneville and Natasha Richardson.[5][6] The Washington TimesTemplate:' Gary Arnold observed that Lewis portrayed the only sympathetic person in the film.[7] For the film, Lewis had to perform a stunt involving the near drowning of his character. While they used a nine-year-old stunt child for the wider shots, the close-ups used Lewis and his co-star Rhydian Jones. Lewis' mother was constantly nearby during its filming.[8]
Lewis appeared as Matthew Couillard, a real-life person who survived a deadly snowstorm while skiing in Turkey with his father, in a 2006 episode of the documentary television series I Shouldn't Be Alive.[9] In 2008, Lewis worked on the dramatised documentary The Shooting of Thomas Hurndall, which depicted the real-life story of a young peace activist who is killed in Israel.[10] In 2012, Lewis appeared in the short film The End, which won Best Film at HollyShorts Film Festival, and the Award of Merit at the Lucerne International Film Festival.[11][12]
