David Gallagher is one of those actors who began their career since childhood. He tried himself in different roles, some of them were successful. About his biography, personal life and other interesting facts in his work can be found in the article.
Childhood and debut on the set
Future actor David Gallagher was born in 1985 in New York. My father was from Ireland, my mother was from Cuba, but the guy himself is a US citizen. The boy was not destined to feel family happiness, because the marriage of his parents broke up almost immediately after his birth. Later, the mother married again, as a result of which David currently has two stepsisters and as many brothers.
His first debut can be considered the appearance in one of the advertisements on television. Then the guy was only a year and a half, but in Hollywood, many actors begin their journey to fame in this way. Further invitations to cooperate were not long in coming.
Cinema and theater
At the age of eight, David Gallagher made his debut in a real film with John Travolta, where he played his son Mikey. The plot of the third part of “Whoever Says” talks about the family of the pilot James and Molly, who together raise two children. Suddenly, the marriage is on the verge of breaking due to the fact that one very rich young lady begins to flirt with the hero of Travolta. In the picture, David was allocated enough screen time for an eight-year-old guy.
After that, he tried himself in the theatrical production of "Christmas Song" by Charles Dickens. At that time, David Gallagher was the youngest actor who tried the role of Scrooge. This attempt to prove himself in theatrical creativity was successful. Critics not only praised the actor’s starring role, but also praised the entire production. Gradually, the guy’s personality became popular, and after several works, he already tried on the costume of a favorite of the public.
Huge success and lull
David Gallagher received universal recognition after he appeared in the family show "Seventh Heaven." This is a popular series in those years among the younger generation. The plot tells about a large Camden family, where parents try to cope with the upbringing of all children. Television drama has helped propel Gallagher's work to a new level. It is also worth saying that the show also brought fame to his teammate Jessica Beale. At this point, fan clubs for the young actor begin to appear throughout the United States.
That was until the seventh season, when the actor decided to leave the franchise. It was time for him to enter the university, and he approached this stage in his life responsibly. In parallel with his studies, he was noticed in the melodrama Phenomenon with John Travolta and in the voice acting of several cartoons. Due to the dedication of several years to training, a lull in creativity began, and the former glory did not want to return to it.
Next attempts
Actor David Gallagher after the release continued to try to glow on the screens in a variety of series. Now he liked detective stories with a bias in crime. Among these, one can note the roles in the serial episode "Bones", "Without a Trace", "Think Like a Criminal." He even had screen time in the incredibly popular franchise Vampire Diaries, but all these are fluent appearances that no one remembered.
In 2007, the filmography of David Gallagher is replenished with an adaptation of the novel by Oscar Wilde "Portrait of Dorian Gray." When working on the film, he even acted as a co-producer, but this did not save the picture. She failed miserably at the box office, although the production with notes of mysticism was quite high quality. For the sake of justice, it is worth noting that the British interpretation of the novel was completely condemned by critics. Failure did not force Gallagher to retreat.
Last known works
Films with David Gallagher did not succeed with the public, except for episodic appearances in various franchises. For example, in the film directed by Abrams “Super 8”, he appeared, but only for a short moment. Prior to this, in 2006, the authors of "The Seventh Heaven", which was already extended for the eleventh season, offered the actor a role. For unknown reasons, he refused and continued his own career without returning to old roles.
A year later, the actor flashed in the title role of the horror film "Boogeyman 2", which did not even appear at the box office. He was immediately sent for sale on cartridges in the shops of the country. Another more or less noticeable project was a picture in the fiction genre "In Your Eyes." Despite the small budget, the story of two telepathically connected people was quite interesting. Only here at the box office again the output was unsuccessful, which is unpleasant, because the tape could find its audience.
Personal life and results
Throughout the year, starting in 2003, David Gallagher was captured with Megan Fox in the photo. This beauty was known throughout Hollywood, and an affair with her somewhat brightened the life of the actor at that time. The relationship did not last long, the reason for the separation is unknown. He later had a relationship with a star of Playboy men's magazine named Gillian Grace. The couple was able to stay together for two years, after which it broke up. More facts from the personal life of the actor are unknown.
It is worth noting the fact that after success at the age of eleven, Gallagher could not be restored to its former popularity. A successful performance in a theatrical production and a good role in the Seventh Heaven franchise gave a huge impetus, but all this was lost during his studies at the university. Subsequent roles were more like finding yourself on a future career, they had almost no success with the public.
