Born on the 27th of June 1975 the son of a construction worker and part time cook father, and a secretary tuned screenwriter/producer mother. Both were very young when he was born and they divorced when he was only two. After his parents divorced, he was forced to live a nomadic life living between his parents and other family members, which left him without the drive to study. He focused instead on his acting career which started when he informed her she wanted to enroll in Home Economics classes to follow in the footsteps of his father. His mother offers him $100.00 to take drama lessons and he agrees. That started it all and as he began to work his way towards an acting career, he became addicted to alcohol for which he had to go into rehab. He is a close friend of Leonardo De Caprio who like him were mostly vying for the same roles with him always on the losing side ending up on the sidelines. He re-focuses his career after rehab turning to other projects where he and his close friend were not in any competition with till he lands the lead for Spiderman which makes his name one remembers.
