Logan Lerman's Best Roles

Celebrating the actor's 31st birthday, L'OFFICIEL takes a look at Logan Lerman's best roles throughout his career. 

Logan Lerman in Perks of Being a Wallflower

Logan Lerman started acting over a decade ago and has earned himself an impressive filmography. From The Perks of Being a Wallflower to his latest feature in Bullet Train, Lerman has been a major force in film.

His first major break came from his role as Percy Jackson in 2010. His book-to-film adaptations streak continued when he played the lead in the cult classic film The Perks of Being a Wallflower in 2012, and then again in 2016 with Indignation. These early roles gained him Internet Boyfriend status back in the 2010s, and while many believed he took a hiatus from acting, Lerman has continued to appear in films and TV shows since his peak.

Whether you know him from your favorite childhood movie or his edgy A24 films, L'OFFICIEL rounds up all the actor's must-see movies in honor of his 31st birthday.

Logan Lerman's first major role was playing the lead in the Percy Jackson series. After finding out he's the son of a Greek god, Percy Jackson trains to prevent an Olympian war. 

'The Three Muskateers'

Lerman stayed in the action genre immediately following Percy Jackson as he took a role in The Three Muskateers. The light-hearted movie is worth the watch for Lerman's daring stunts and his luscious locks

There's no denying that Lerman's portrayal of Charlie Kelmeckis in The Perks of Being a Wallflower is one of his career highlights. The film is often regarded as one of the most iconic coming-of-age movies of all time.

'Stuck in Love'

Though not playing a leading role, Lerman captures our hearts in this romance film featuring Lily Collins. Playing a young author in love with Collin's character, there's no way you can resist his charm.

'Fury'

One of Lerman's most highly regarded films came in 2014 with Fury. Lerman plays a first-time soldier in WWII, under the leadership of Brad Pitt's Staff Sargeant role. Playing such a character in such an intense situation is difficult enough without sharing the screen with some of the biggest actors of our time, but Lerman holds his own effortlessly and delivers an amazing performance. 

'Indignation'

In another gritty coming-of-age film, the actor takes on the lead role of a 1950s student whose scholarship allowed him to avoid the draft. Lerman's character experiences all the highs and lows of college life in an even more intense time period.

Playing the titular Sidney, Lerman stars alongside Elle Fanning and Margaret Qualley in this A24 mystery about an author who disappears into the world he created. 

'End of Sentence'

Lerman has never shied away from an independent film and it's easy to see why. This story about an estranged father/son duo is as introspective as it is funny.

In one of his rare TV appearances, Lerman stars alongside Al Pacino as a Nazi hunter. The dark comedy and period drama earned him praise from critics. 

'Bullet Train'

Lerman's most recent project to date comes from the star-studded film Bullet Train. This action-packed movie will be released on August 5 and has already received stellar reviews.
