His breakthrough performance, however, came from playing the role of Michael Moscovitz in Disney's Princesse malgré elle (2001), winning the role due to his musical ability. The movie also featured a scene with a section from the song "Blueside" that Robert wrote and is a real song for his band Rooney, and is set to be Rooney's first single. During post-production of Princesse malgré elle (2001), he decided to changed his name to Robert Cage in honor of his talented actor cousin Nicolas Cage, but the change could not take effect as promotional material had already been finalized, so the name Robert Schwartzman remained.

He has also taken another name change to Robert Carmine, in honor of his grandfather Carmine Coppola who was a music composer, and also to divide himself from his acting career and musical career.
