Tom Everett Scott

Graduated from Syracuse University, Syracuse, New York with a BA in Drama in 1992

During auditions for That Thing You Do! (1996), Tom Hanks was opposed to hiring Tom (Everett Scott), because of the the fact that Scott could've passed for Hanks 15 years ago. It wasn't until Hanks' wife Rita Wilson saw the audition tape, and decided he was cute, so, Hanks decided to risk hiring Scott.

In the 2003 off-Broadway play "Touch," Scott's character opened the show with a 30-minute monologue.

Came in 3rd in a "World Poker Tour" (2003) event, so far being the only "celebrity" to make it to a WPT final table

In 2005, he appeared at the L.A. Ahmanson Theatre stage production of "Dead End," a rare revival of the 1932 Depression-era play that takes place along New York's East River. In the play, the entire orchestra pit was filled with 11,000 gallons of water to recreate the site. The play cost a reported $3 million.
