In 2008, he worked on stage around the time when he was graduating from the ‘University of North Carolina School of the Arts’. He was an understudy for actor Haley Joel Osment in the Broadway production of David Mamet’s ‘American Buffalo’. Although the production closed after just eight performances Dane gained valuable experience. The same year he debuted on TV in the episode ‘Lunacy’ of ‘Law & Order Special Victims Unit’ and also appeared in the short ‘Stormy Weather’.2010 turned out to be a great year for the young actor. He started the year appearing in the TV movies ‘At Risk’ and ‘The Front’ which aired in April. He also won an ‘Obie Award’ for his stellar performance in the Off-Broadway play ‘The Aliens’. He followed that up with his movie debut in the American-Filipino drama film ‘Amigo’. All of these helped Dane land his breakthrough role of Jesse D’Amato in the third season of the HBO drama series ‘In Treatment’. His turn as an angry, aggressive, vulnerable, and adopted teenager was applauded by all critics and established him as an actor. In 2011, the actor portrayed Timbo on the TV series ‘True Blood’.In 2012, the actor landed the role of Andrew Detmer in the found-footage-thriller ‘Chronicle’. The movie made US$ 126.6 million against a budget of US$ 12 million making it the surprise blockbuster of the year.

It was not only critically panned but lead actors Dane DeHaan and Cara Delevingne received severely negative reviews as well. His next venture ‘Tulip Fever’ was unsuccessful as well.
