Everything you need to know about Adam!
Name: Adam Jared Brody
Birthday: December 15, 1979
Hometown: San Diego CA
Hair color: Dark brown
Eye color: Hazel
Born on the 15th of December 1979, this Sagittarius
was raised in sunny San Diego, California. Adam spent his teen years like many other Californian teens. He lived the Californian dream - surfing, swimming, sunning and hanging out with his friends. Surfing was important to him while he was growing up and venturing into the world of professional surfing was one of his dreams.
Every actor has been influenced by some production or movie, something which gives them that ambition to become an actor. For Adam this movie was 'I Know What You Did Last Summer'. He told TV Guide Online "I always walked by [the VHS box] on the shelf and thought [of leads Freddie Prinze Jr., Sarah Michelle Gellar and Ryan Philippe], 'Those kids have it made.' Not only that but he had a huge crush on the Jennifer Love Hewitt. His love for acting developed at a late stage and came as a huge surprise to his parents. His father's reaction to it was 'All right, have fun being a waiter.' But Adam was determined to make it.
In the January of 1999 he moved to Hollywood. On getting there he hired an acting coach and signed up to a manager. Adam wasn't your usual teen heartthrob with his geeky skateboarder looks but the jobs were coming in at a good rate. He landed small roles in commercials, pilots and soaps and this eventually led to him being cast as Barry Williams in the movie ‘Growing Up Brady’. This role came a year after he'd moved to Hollywood.
His determination was beginning to pay off. Soon he was casted as the lead in MTV's ‘Now What?’ and landed other roles in TV- shows: Once and Again, Gilmore Girls, Judging Amy, Family Law and Smallville. He is currently staring as the loveable and ever geeky Seth Cohen in The O.C along with Benjamin McKenzie, Peter Gallagher and Rachel Bilson.
His Curriculum Vite is ever growing. He's stared in the movies 'Growing Up Brady', 'The Ring', 'Missing Brendan', 'Grind' and 'American Pie 2'. Currently he is working on the movie 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith' alongside top Hollywood stars Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
It's safe to say that Adam Brody is here to stay. With his talent, good looks and his loveable geekiness he's only going to continue to work in bigger and better things.
