Dillon Freasier, who plays HW in There Will Be Blood, was a non actor before casting.
Anderson didn't audition him before allotting him the role; they just spoke to him rather than have him read lines, and decided he would fit well.
Freasier still is a non actor to this day, as he's never been in a film since.

There Will Be Blood is a 2007 American epic period drama film written and directed by Paul Thomas Anderson, loosely based on the 1927 novel Oil! by Upton Sinclair.[4] It stars Daniel Day-Lewis as Daniel Plainview, a silver miner turned oilman on a ruthless quest for wealth during Southern California's oil boom of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Paul Dano, Kevin J. O'Connor, Ciarán Hinds, and Dillon Freasier co-star.
The film was produced by Ghoulardi Film Company and distributed by Paramount Vantage and Miramax Films. At the 2008 Berlin International Film Festival, it won the Silver Bear Award for Best Director and a Special Artistic Contribution Award for Jonny Greenwood's score. It grossed $76.2 million worldwide on a $25 million budget.
There Will Be Blood received acclaim for its cinematography, direction, screenplay, score, and the performances of Day-Lewis and Dano. Day-Lewis won the Academy Award, BAFTA, Golden Globe, Screen Actors Guild, NYFCC and IFTA Best Leading Actor awards for the role. It has been widely regarded by critics as one of the greatest films of the 21st century,[5][6] and it appeared on many critics' "top ten" lists for 2007, including the American Film Institute,[7] the National Society of Film Critics, the National Board of Review, and the Los Angeles Film Critics Association. At the 80th Academy Awards, the film was nominated for eight Oscars (tying with another Miramax/Paramount Vantage co-production No Country for Old Men). The nominations included Best Picture, Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay for Anderson. Along with Day-Lewis' Oscar for Best Actor, Robert Elswit won the award for Best Cinematography.

Daniel Day-Lewis in There Will Be Blood (Paul Thomas Anderson, 2007)
Cast: Daniel Day-Lewis, Paul Dano, Ciarán Hinds, Dillon Freasier, Kevin J. O'Connor. Screenplay: Paul Thomas Anderson, based on a novel by Upton Sinclair. Cinematography: Robert Elswit. Production design: Jack Fisk. Film editing: Dylan Tichenor. Music: Jonny Greenwood.
Extraordinary filmmaking made even more extraordinary by Daniel Day-Lewis's performance, the second of his three Oscar wins. There are some who think the film is a little diffuse and eccentric, especially in its later scenes. But who needs ordinary movies?

Um dia ele descobre a existência de uma pequena cidade no oeste onde um mar de petróleo está transbordando do solo. Daniel decide partir para o local com seu filho, H.W. (Dillon Freasier). O nome da cidade é Little Boston, sendo que a única diversão do local é a igreja do carismático pastor Eli Sunday (Paul Dano). Daniel e H.W. se arriscam e logo encontram um poço de petróleo, que lhes traz riqueza mas também uma série de conflitos.
