Sean Astin

Hollywood actor Sean Estin is best remembered by the audience for his role as SamuelGamji in Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings trilogy. Although the man received a number of nominations for this work, including the Saturn Award and the Visual Effects Society Awards, he has dozens of equally significant characters in film and television.

Sean Estin was born on February 25, 1971 in Santa Monica, California, his birth mother was actress Patty Duke. She rose to fame as an Oscar winner and Golden Globe winner. The boy's father for some time was considered showman Desiderio Alberto Arnaza - Jr., but genetic examination found that in fact it was Patty's husband, writer and newspaperman Michael Tell.

Since both men did not participate in Sean's upbringing, as a child the closest people for him were the second and third spouses of his mother - actor John Estin and Army Sergeant Michael Pierce. However, as a teenager, the future Sam Gamji met with the disappeared fans of his mother and since then said that he has 4 dads: Arnaz, Tell, Estin and Pierce.

This contact influenced the boy's worldview, and after studying at a Catholic gymnasium, he was trained at Crossroads High School of Art, and then continued his education at the University of Los Angeles and changed religion to Christian Protestantism.

At the age of 13, the teenager made his debut on the big screen and became the main character of the film "Balbes", based on the story of Steven Spielberg and telling about adventures and search for treasure. Later, Sean played in youth comedies, participated in "The Rose War" and the adventure drama "Summer of White Water". Thanks to the childish features preserved in the actor's youth, he for a long time continued to play young characters.

In 1991, the youth action film "Toy Soldiers" was released, followed by a biography of "Rudy", a comedy "The Guy Meets a Girl" and a military drama "Courage in Battle". And in the 2000s, Sean's fate was turned upside down - despite being 170cm tall and 65kg, Peter Jackson invited him to the role of hobbit on the set of Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings.

As a result, in addition to fame and recognition, the project brought the actor seven individual nominations, he received the awards of critics of Utah, as well as the prestigious award "Saturn". Shortly after the premiere of "The Return of the King," which became the third and final part of the trilogy, the man, with the help of Elijah Wood and other co-workers, released a short film, "Both Long and Short," and wrote the book "Back and Forth: The Actor's Tale," published in 2004.

Subsequently, he played a couple of fairy-tale characters in "The Color of Magic," which became an adaptation of Terry Pratchett, and "Justice League" by Comics Jeff Jones, but the main place was television. Estin took part in the creation of the American bestseller "Very Strange Things" with Winona Ryder in the title role, and also appeared in the final episodes of "The Big Bang Theory", released in 2019.

In addition, Sean ventured to the stage of the Broadway theater and played in the adaptation of the old French farce, and then reincarnated in Stalin in the multimedia fantasy "Shostakovich and the Black Monk."

In 1992, Estin's wife was a girl named Christine Harrell, who in her youth held the title "Miss Indiana" and participated in a national beauty contest. Shortly after the wedding, the couple had children named Louise, Isabella and Alexandra after the older generation.

One of them participated in her father's films, portraying Samuaisa Gamji's daughter in The Lord of the Rings, as well as a high school student at the Bad Kids of Crestview Academy.

Sean prefers not to talk about personal life, but shares the public position with pleasure. So fans know that he has served on the board of directors of a number of nonprofit organizations, including the National Center for Family Literacy, the Los Angeles Valley College Patrons Association, the Arts Council and the Run3rd Alliance.

On the basis of the last organization, Estin campaigned for a healthy lifestyle and created a team of marathon runners dedicated to others. The actor himself from a young age was fond of sports, and his main achievement was the race for survival, which lasted 15 hours and 30 minutes.

In addition, Sean is interested in politics and has never missed the U.S. presidential election. He is known to have received civilian appointments from George W. Bush and then supported candidate Hillary Clinton in two campaigns.

In addition to the final episodes of "The Big Bang Theory" and the third season of the mystical thriller "Very Strange Things," in 2019, Estin appeared in some episodes of the police comedy "Brooklyn 9-9" and the project "Nick will show you."

In Sean's family life, everything is fine. Judging by the photos posted on Instagram, he is very proud of his daughter, who graduated from Harvard University.
