he originally ended up in la studying to become a doctor and ended up joining a comedy troupe which was completely unsuccessful but gave him the taste for performing, so auditioning for film/television came naturally after that. he was in his mid-20s before he got any real roles and was cast in friends as only his second project ever, he had two kids during its run and eventually ended up divorced just before the show finished. nobody expected too much from him when the show was over, but he had a couple of surprisingly decent performances in more serious roles and the lincoln lawyer eventually put him on the map as a highly respected actor in 2011. personality-wise he's very self assured and confident, he tends to flip between being obnoxiously charming and a little abrupt depending on his mood, he doesn't shy away from confrontation and really hates the more fake aspects of hollywood so tends to be very honest as a result. he also has a really low tolerance level for any kind of bullshit or diva behaviour on set, his work ethic is pretty on point and he expects the same of his costars too. what about her, how do you think they'd get along?
