Life and career

Johnson started acting when he followed the footsteps of his older brother in playing Tiny Tim in an adaptation of A Christmas Carol at the Citadel Theatre. He was the youngest child actor ever cast in the part at the Citadel.

Johnson's big break came with his first major role in AMC's award-winning The Killing, where he played Denny Larsen, a role for which he received a Young Artist Award nomination and praise from director Patty Jenkins, who directed both The Killing's pilot and season finale episodes. Johnson appeared in 26 episodes in season 1 and 2.

Johnson also played other roles, such as a transgender teen in Dangers of Online Dating, and the traumatized bloodied teen Shawn Raider in the thirteenth season of Supernatural.
