Career

1991–2003: Films, Initial Guitar Lessons, and The Amanda Show

Bell started acting at the age of five,[9] encouraged by his father who attempted to put him into Little League Baseball and other sports with no success before finding Bell's talent in public speaking and his confidence when impersonating people he'd watch on television.[8] He stated "I was five, and my dad kind of said, 'Hey, you wanna be an actor?' and I said, 'Sure,' that kind of thing, you know? I was kind of put into it by my dad but, you know, good. I really love it, and I still do it." Bell's first televised commercial was for Whirlpool Appliances. "I had to sit under a tree and eat a Popsicle," Bell later stated, "I thought, 'I could get used to this.'"[10][11] His first television show appearance was on a 1994 episode of Home Improvement.[12] He appeared in the 1996 film Jerry Maguire,[13] and had a small role in the Seinfeld episode "The Frogger" in 1998.[14] In 1999, he acted in a commercial for Pokémon Red and Blue[15] and in the movie Dragon World: The Legend Continues.[16] In 2000, he was nominated for a Young Artist Award for his role as Cage Redding in the made-for-television film The Jack Bull. He began to play guitar at the age of twelve.[17] He received his first official guitar lessons from Roger Daltrey when he starred with him in the 2001 film Chasing Destiny.[18] From 1999 until the show was cancelled in 2002, Bell was a featured performer on The Amanda Show.[18] He also made a guest appearance on the series The Nightmare Room.[19]
