He played the role of Dillon in Ravenswood and also played the role of Will Cloud in the film Cloud 9 (2014). He recurred as Teddy's boyfriend, Beau, on the final season of the Disney Channel series Good Luck Charlie.
Benward's acting career started when he landed a role in the film We Were Soldiers as David Moore in 2002. His success grew in 2006, when he played Billy Forrester in the movie How to Eat Fried Worms, which he won a Young Artist Award for in the category of Best Young Ensemble in a Feature Film.
He also played 14-year-old Charlie Tuttle in the movie from Disney Channel Minutemen, the 14-year-old Alan in Dear John, and the little boy who helps the abused girl in the music video "Concrete Angel" by Martina McBride. Benward's first album, Let Your Love Out, came out on January 5, 2009, and contained five songs. He also toured with the Christian group iShine LIVE for a short time, where he would sing his music in concert. The record label that signed him is called In Crowd Productions, whose collective credits include Hilary Duff, India.Arie, the Backstreet Boys, Mat Kearney, Death Cab for Cutie, and the Jonas Brothers.
Benward also had a recurring role as Matthew Pearson, the ex-boyfriend of Emily Hobbs (Ryan Newman) on See Dad Run. He was in the movie from Disney Channel Cloud 9 with Liv and Maddie star Dove Cameron and appeared as Beau, Teddy's love interest, on six back to back episodes of Good Luck Charlie, reuniting him with his Minutemen co star Jason Dolley. He appeared as Thor in the third-season premiere of the Disney Channel series Girl Meets World.
