The filmmakers gave Tyler the preference of the 2,000 young actors who auditioned for the role. For filming, 14-year-old Hoechlin had to learn to drive a car, which he did with great pleasure (although he was still insured by a stuntman).
The film won an Oscar for amazing cinematography, and Tyler himself was awarded the Saturn Award for best young actor of the year.

The casting director of the series 7th Heaven drew attention to Hoechlin’s game in The Damned Path, and in 2003 the young man joined the cast of this melodrama, which has been on the air since 1996.
