Going well in working on his path in Hollywood's film industry, young star Spencer Breslin has been cast to play the titular character in edgy teen comedy "Harold" opposite the already-announced Cuba Gooding Jr., The Hollywood Reporter has learned.

A joint production of City Lights Pictures and M.E.G.A. Films, the flick follows Breslin's character as he tries to adapt to a new high school he is sent to. Filming starts this month in New York under the direction of T. Sean Shannon with Gooding Jr. to portray the school's janitor who befriends the teased student.

"It's only one of a couple scripts over the last two years that made me laugh nonstop," Breslin commented about the project. "My friends always call me 'the neurotic old man,' and my character acts like an old guy, so it's a good fit."

Apart from "Harold", the talented teen is also taking starring part in 20th Century Fox's thriller "The Happening" which has just added John Leguizamo into the cast, describing his role as "a typical teenage boy, a bit of a smartass." M. Night Shyamalan is in charge to direct from his own script as well as to produce alongside Sam Mercer and Barry Mendel.
