Callan McAuliffe: GQ Breakthrough of the Year!

Callan McAuliffe looks cool in his bow tie as he arrives at the 2012 GQ Men of the Year Awards on Tuesday (November 13) in Sydney, Australia.

The 17-year-old actor was named GQ‘s Breakthrough of the Year.

“Contrary to popular belief, most people would think that it would be The Great Gatsby,” he told news.com.au about his actual breakthrough moment.

He continued, “But I’d say the defining moment for me was Flipped back in 2009. It really put me in the industry, introduced me to the US and pushed my career forward.”

Congrats, Callan!
