Adrian
Grenier - Star of HBO's Hit Series
Entourage |
| |
 Bearing the dark, sensuous,
pretty-boy looks of a Calvin Klein
poster boy, Adrian Grenier managed
to make a distinct impression on
audiences and critics with only a
handful of films to his name. Born
in 1976, Grenier grew up in Brooklyn
and attended Bard College. It was
during his studies that he was cast
as the titular lead in the
independent film
The
Adventures of Sebastian Cole
(1998). His natural, unaffected
portrayal of a young man growing up
with his pre-op transsexual
stepfather in 1980s upstate New York
was a hit among critics, and Grenier
was soon being touted as one to
watch. That same year, the young
actor -- who had made his film debut
in the 1997 independent film
Arresting Gena -- also gained a
significant amount of exposure
playing a member of
Leonardo DiCaprio's
entourage in
Woody
Allen's

Following the critical
and arthouse success of Sebastian
Cole, Grenier was cast in his first
mainstream film,
Drive
Me Crazy
(1999). A teen film centered around
the high drama of who to take to the
prom, it placed the actor in a
starring role opposite Sabrina, the
Teen-Age Witch idol
Melissa Joan Hart.
After a decidedly Manson-esque turn
as a cinematic terrorist in director
John
Waters'
Cecil
B. Demented,
Grenier could be seen in a small but
notably less-psychotic role in
Steven Spielberg's
2001 sci-fi drama A.I. Over the next
three years, Grenier showed up in
supporting roles in a handful of
films such as
Hart's War
and
Anything Else,
the latter of which again saw him
teamed with
Woody
Allen.
But it was the move to the
small-screen in 2004 with the lead
on HBO's critically-acclaimed
Entourage that landed Grenier his
most substantial notice and success
to date.
