这年头，萝莉正太正风行。他们小小年纪，表演却丝毫不输给大腕明星，让人刮目相看。在这些童星当中，有些是因为长相够“萌”，无需演技就能轻松吸引观众眼球，但这一类童星往往会因为“长残”而很快被人遗忘；一些童星虽然演技了得，但因为过早浸染在名利的大染缸里而迷失自我，最终只能淡出人们视线。但有那么几个童星，他们演技精湛，长相突出，似乎就是为镜头而生的。所谓长江后浪推前浪，以下几位童星绝对不可小觑——他们就是未来。

The most interesting thing about child stars is their potential[潜力]. If theyve already made it in the entertainment industry as minors[未成年人]， what are they going to be capable of when theyre all grown up？ Here are six child stars to keep an eye on[密切注视].

童星最特别之处就是他们的潜力。如果他们在未成年之时就已经在娱乐产业闯出一片天地，那么他们长大以后的成就又会是怎样呢？以下六位童星，大家可要密切关注哦。

Elle Fanning （aged 15）

艾丽·范宁（15岁）

I chose Elle over her older sister Dakota for two simple reasons. One， Dakota is 19 now， so I dont think she qualifies[具有资格] for this list anymore. But more importantly， I feel that Elle has picked more interesting and challenging projects in her short career.

The first time I noticed her was when she guest starred on Criminal Minds， and she was really good. Since then， Ive been nothing but impressed by the choices shes made. She shined in a small but critical[关键性的] role in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button， and was equally impressive in her leading role in Super 8. I wish her and her big sister all the best in their adult careers.

我选艾丽而不选她的姐姐达科塔，只为两个很简单的理由。首先，达科塔19岁了，所以我认为她不再符合本榜单的条件。但更重要的是，我认为艾丽在其短短几年的职业生涯中（比姐姐）挑选了更多有意思、更具挑战性的（电影）计划。

我第一次注意到艾丽是她在《犯罪心理》里的客串角色，她真的演得很不错。自那以后，她的选择总给我留下深刻的印象。她在《返老还童》中饰演一个戏份少但起关键作用的角色，她在戏里可谓光芒四射；而在《超级八》中担当主角的她同样叫人难忘。我祝愿她和她姐姐在日后的演艺生涯中一切顺利。

Asa Butterfield （aged 16）

阿沙·巴特菲尔德（16岁）

I give a lot of credit[荣誉，赞扬] to any kid who is asked to carry a film. Its one thing to be a child actor milling around[漫无目的地……
