Most 15 year olds are in the dreaded throes of their high school education, and while Josh Moore is as well, he's got plenty more on his plate than just homework. After starting out in stand-up comedy and working in student films at the University of Texas in his hometown of Austin, Moore made the move to Los Angeles in 2007 and quickly went to work. His first film role was in Clint Eastwood's 2008 film Changeling and last year he was also one of the new, younger additions to the cast of the ABC hit TV series
Desperate Housewives 1-5 dvd, which is currently airing its sixth season airing on Sunday nights at 9 PM ET on ABC. Moore plays young Parker Scavo, the darling child of Felicity Huffman's Lynette Scavo and I recently had the chance to talk with Moore on the phone about this new season and the series as a whole. Here's what he had to say.
Desperate Housewives seasons 1-5
So, first of all, I was wondering how you first heard about the role and what made you interested in playing Parker?
Josh Moore: Well, I had heard that there was going to be some kind of huge dramatic cliffhanger that season. I actually thought about it before it even came up, that it would be really cool to get a role on
Desperate Housewives dvd, because it's such a solid show. Then, sure enough, the agents sent out a breakdown for the character and the audition. I went and felt like it went really well, I was crossing my fingers. I got a callback and ended up getting it. It was really exciting.
