Dillon made his feature film debut in ''Over the Edge'' (1979) and established himself as a teen idol by starring in the films ''My Bodyguard'' (1980), ''Little Darlings'' (1980), ''Liar's Moon'' (1982), ''The Flamingo Kid'' (1984) and three of five S. E. Hinton book adaptations: ''Tex'' (1982), ''Rumble Fish'' (1983) and ''The Outsiders'' (1983). From the late 1980s onward, Dillon achieved further success, starring in ''Drugstore Cowboy'' (1989), ''Singles'' (1992), ''The Saint of Fort Washington'' (1993), ''To Die For'' (1995), ''Beautiful Girls'' (1996), ''In & Out'' (1997), ''There's Something About Mary'' (1998), and ''Wild Things'' (1998). In a 1991 article, movie critic Roger Ebert referred to him as the best actor within his age group, along with Sean Penn.
In 2002, he made his directing debut with ''City of Ghosts'' and has since continued to act in films such as ''Factotum'' (2005), ''You, Me and Dupree'' (2006), ''The House That Jack Built'' (2018), and ''Asteroid City'' (2023). For ''Crash'' (2004), he won an Independent Spirit Award and was nominated for a Golden Globe Award and the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. He had earlier been nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Spoken Word Album for narrating Jack Kerouac's ''On the Road''. On television, he starred in the first season of the FOX television series ''Wayward Pines'' (2015), for which he was nominated for a Saturn Award. Provided by Wikipedia
