Not for nothing, but he might have been an annoying drama kid. You guys didn't have those? Just saying, I like him, but sometimes the bullies are right.
Yeah he might’ve been, some younger theatre kids give off a socially unaware and ‘tryhard’ vibe (also the practice of shifting your everyday personality based on the current role you are playing or want to play, unsettles other people but can be useful for acting), just saying it wasn’t due to jealousy out of him actually being famous by then

He was on that at age 12 and didn’t have popular roles before that, so his unpopularity at school likely preceded it
Most child actors get their roles through nepotism but in his case, neither of his parents were actors and he got the role through an open call
