Croft made his feature film debut in 2017 as a Young David Logan in The Hippopotamus. He appeared in the 2019 films Music, War and Love and Horrible Histories: The Movie – Rotten Romans as Young Robert Pulaski and Atti respectively, the latter of which earned him a BAFTA Children's Award nomination in the Young Performer category.[1]

In 2021, Croft voiced Peter van Daan in the animated fantasy film Where Is Anne Frank, which premiered at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival. He lent his voice to Volume II of the Netflix animated anthology Love, Death & Robots in the Creative Arts Emmy Award-winning episode "Ice".

Personal life

Croft has dyslexia.[19][20] For the LGBT Pride Month in 2022, Croft tweeted that he "designed a t-shirt with two gay dinosaurs kissing, reminding everyone that Queer has always been here".
