In 1992, he again got a role in "Open All Night". Later on in the same year, Brandon made guest appearances in a number of TV series. Hammond was so talented that he also got a small role in the film "Lorenzo's Oil" in the same year yet again. In the following year, 1993, Brandon starred in "Menace II Society" as the young Caine.
