He was working at a Home Depot and struggling for small TV roles when he was
cast in the first American Pie. 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. 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.
A willingness to take less attractive roles has earned blond, athletic Seann
William Scott strong character parts like the misguided bully or the sympathetic
class clown in lieu of the romantic lead, setting him apart from the pack of
young heartthrobs. The Minnesota native moved to Los Angeles following his high
school graduation and after a talent search ended with a failed audition for the
ABC soap "All My Children", Scott landed a guest stint on The WB's sitcom
"Unhappily Ever After" in 1997. That same year he made his TV-movie debut with a
supporting role in the NBC fact-based drama "Born Into Exile" and was featured
the following year in an episode of the ABC sitcom "Something So Right".
Although he was in his twenties, Scott possessed youthful looks that allowed him
to be cast convincingly in teen roles, a definite asset to the up and comer
while the industry was in the midst of a millennial teen film boom. In 1999,
Scott made his big screen debut with a breakthrough role in the popular teen sex
comedy "American Pie". He played Stifler, a crass, loutish senior whose luck
with the ladies and constant taunting of his less fortunate peers leads the
group to resolve to lose their virginity before graduation. He excelled as the
bad guy, playing the despicable part with aplomb, skillfully handling his
character's overconfidence and the appropriately graceless ways he reacted to
his comeuppance. The next year Scott returned to the big screen with an engaging
portrayal of class clown Billy Hitchcock in the high school-set thriller "Final
Destination". Narrowly escaping a plane crash, Hitchcock and his fellow
survivors find that death isn't accepting this change of plans without a fight,
and the actor brought a much-needed comic relief to the harrowing events. Here
Scott proved a charming screen presence, with a sweetly awkward role much more
likable than his "American Pie" character. He followed up that same year with a
co-starring turn as one of a group of college guys from Ithaca, New York who
accompany a friend (Breckin Meyer) on a "Road Trip" (2000) to Texas in an
attempt to retrieve an explicit and incriminating videotape before it falls into
the wrong hands.
