Hirsch starred inInto the Wild,Sean Penn’s acclaimed and award-winning film that told the life of adventurer Chris McCandless. The film managed to be nominated and win a large number of awards, largely thanks to the performance of its main star.

The following year, the actor tried to make it in the world of big franchises starring in the adaptation ofSpeed ​​Racerby the Wachowski sisters, which, although it was very well received, did not achieve the expected impact given the popularity of the character.

That same year he worked again with Sean Penn onMilk, and then he collected different titles, even releasing several films per year.
