Global — Not often do we see a rising star in the making, but actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt is a shooting star. Since he made his mark as Tommy Solomon on "3rd Rock From the Sun" (1996-2001) he has starred in blockbuster films including Christopher Nolan's "Inception" with Leonardo DiCaprio and "The Dark Knight Rises" with Christian Bale. His latest flick in theaters now is "Premium Rush," in which he is the leading man and he's also in Steven Spielberg's upcoming release "Lincoln" (2012).
There's a lot more to Gordon-Levitt than meets the eye. Besides making a big name for himself in Hollywood as the guy-next-door with a penchant for playing the heroic sidekick, he's an entrepreneur too. He's the founder and producer of online venture hitrecord.org, an open collaborative production company, where anyone can upload and download content and edit it to create something new, then share it with others who visit the site.
I am definitely excited to see more from this talented actor, and I'm confident he will deliver, that's why he made my hit list.
