Huntington was born in Peterborough, New Hampshire, and raised in Hancock. His mother, Christine Stabile, owned and operated the Black Box Theatre, where Huntington started his career.[3] Huntington's great-uncle was actor Ralph Bellamy.[citation needed]

Career

Huntington's first role was in the 1996 television movie Harvest of Fire, which starred Lolita Davidovich. He then appeared opposite Tim Allen in Disney's Jungle 2 Jungle the following year. He has appeared in films Detroit Rock City, Not Another Teen Movie, Sleepover, Rolling Kansas, Freshman Orientation, In Enemy Hands and River's End.
