Blessed with a smirk that will undoubtedly guarantee him countless roles similar to his breakout performance as snarky jock Steve Stifler in 1999′s American Pie, Seann William Scott has quickly become one of the most prolific teen comedy stars of his generation.
Scott was born July 12, 1977, in Cottage Grove, MN, where he spent most of his youth wanting to be an actor. After completing high school early, Scott traded Minnesota for Los Angeles, securing a role in the televised version of Random House’s popular Sweet Valley High romance novels.
One more short-lived television series and an Aerosmith video later, Scott took on the role of Stifler and helped usher in the teen sex comedy’s resurgence of the late ’90s. He continued down this path with three more successful teen-movie offerings — (Final Destination, Road Trip, and Dude, Where’s My Car?, all released in 2000 — where he essentially played variations on the same character.
More of the same was expected when Scott reprised his role in American Pie 2 for the summer of 2001, and again in American Wedding in 2003.
But 2001 also found Scott taking roles that would require him to stretch beyond the dumb-jock mode that has brought him fame; he appeared in Kevin Smith’s Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, as well as Ivan Reitman’s alien comedy Evolution with Julianne Moore, David Duchovny, and Orlando Jones.
The release of Bulletproof Monk in 2003 found Scott expanding his onscreen persona to that of teen action icon. ~ Stephanie M. Kuenn, All Movie Guide
