Biography
Early life
Scott, the youngest of seven (each of his parents had three children from previous marriages), was born in Cottage Grove, Minnesota, the son of Patricia Ann (née Simons), a homemaker, and William Frank Scott, a factory worker.1 He was inspired to become an actor while working at the local movie theater and seeing all the movies he could watch free. He graduated from Crestview Elementary School and Park High School. After high school, Scott moved to Los Angeles, where he was "discovered" in a talent search competition. His first professional gig was on television in the music video for "Hole in My Soul" by Aerosmith. Soon he appeared in Chad's World, a gay-themed TV show broadcast on the Web by the short-lived Digital Entertainment Network.
Career
Scott's first commercial success came with the 1999 movie American Pie as the bully Steve Stifler, a role he reprised in two sequels. Though the character of "Steve Stifler" propelled Scott into the public consciousness, the actor has mentioned in a variety of interviews his fear of typecasting, which has led to him choose to play different types of characters post-American Pie such as hapless nerd role in the film Final Destination and a harmless stoner character in Dude, Where's My Car? alongside his real-life best friend, Ashton Kutcher.
Scott made an appearance in Kevin Smith's Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back as a guitar-playing animal rights activist and has a starring part as a police officer in Southland Tales, where he re-unites with fellow actor Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Scott hosted the MTV Movie Awards 2003 alongside Justin Timberlake. The two performed several skits, including scenes from The Matrix Reloaded. This was very popular and even featured on The Matrix Reloaded DVD. He has also hosted Saturday Night Live and appeared as a guest co-host on Live with Regis and Kelly. It is rumored that he will be in the running for Baird in the film adaption of Gears of War.
