Haley Joel Osment has two new films in the pipeline

Haley Joel Osment is returning to acting with roles in two new films.

The Sixth Sense star had taken some time off making movies to study in New York, but is now heading back to the acting scene with the comedies Tusk and Me Him Her, reported Deadline.

In Kevin Smith's Tusk, he will play a young man whose best friend (Justin Long) goes missing in Canada.

So far little is known about the plot of director Max Landis' Me Him Her, in which Haley will star alongside Geena Davis and Scott Bakula.

Haley, 25, has had several movie and TV roles since he found fame in The Sixth Sense in 1999, but recently had a short break to attend New York University's Tisch School of the Arts.
