Wentworth Earl Miller Iii

Wentworth Miller is an American actor and screenwriter who became famous for his role as Michael Scofield in the crime series Escape.

He was born on June 2, 1972 in the English town of Chipping Norton, the son of lawyer Wentworth Miller Sr. and his wife Roxanne, who worked as a school teacher. Since both of the boy's parents were American, Miller received dual citizenship. By the way, the blood of more than a dozen nations flows in the actor's veins - from African and Indian on his father's side to Russian, Syrian and French on his mother's.

The family did not stay in Great Britain for long. Actually, there Wentworth's father was studying at Oxford University. Soon all the Millers moved home to the United States and settled in New York's Park Slope neighborhood.

In his school years, the guy paid a lot of attention to combating racial inequality: as soon as classmates found out that there were African Americans in his family, they began to persecute and insult Wentworth.

For this reason, the parents advised their son, from the very first days of study at Princeton University, not to hide the origin, but to hang photographs of relatives on the walls to avoid further explanations. But the guy went on. Miller published a cartoon on the topic of racial discrimination in the newspaper. But since the author of the drawing himself looked white, the story took an unexpected turn: Miller gained a bad reputation with the teaching staff.

This attitude was aggravated by the fact that the young man spent a lot of time rehearsing and touring with the famous a cappella group The Princeton Tigertones and missed a lot of lectures. However, Wentworth was able to successfully defend his thesis on the classic novels "Jane Eyre" and "Antoinette" and became a BA in English Literature.

But after graduation, the graduate decides to become an actor. Miller leaves for Los Angeles, gets a job in the development department of the production company "Paramount" and begins to take one casting after another by storm.

The creative biography of the artist was not easy. For four years, Wentworth Miller ran into continuous rejections, until he got a cameo role in one episode of the mystical film "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." Then there was participation in the melodrama "Time of Your Life" and the medical series "Ambulance". And in 2002, the actor was offered to play the main role in the fantasy film "Dinotopia", and he was transformed into a sensitive young David Scott. This series won an Emmy Award, but, paradoxically, it did not affect Wentworth Miller's career.

But the next film "Tainted reputation" was able to draw the attention of the public to the unusual actor. Miller had to first prove to the director that he has mixed blood, and for this he brought a photo album with the image of relatives to the studio. The fact is that the main character of this drama, Colman Silk, has been hiding for many years that he is of African American origin.

Anthony Hopkins played the main character in adulthood. This directorial choice angered film critics, who expressed doubts that Briton Hopkins was suitable for the role of African American. But these remarks did not affect the success with the viewer audience.

After Tainted Reputation, Wentworth starred in the thriller Underworld. The film is about the world of vampires and werewolves, about the war between two ancient clans. The main characters were performed by Kate Beckinsale, Michael Sheen. And Wentworth Miller got the image of Dr. Adam. This was soon followed by a cameo role in the action adventure Stealth and the lead role in the short drama Confessions.

In the family television series New Joan of Arc, about a young American Joan (Amber Tamblyn) who can communicate directly with God, Wentworth Miller reincarnated as Ryan Hunter, a young millionaire. Miller's character is also able to talk with higher powers, but uses the information thus obtained for personal gain.

In 2005, Wentworth became a superstar. The artist managed to make such a turn in his career thanks to the crime drama Escape, in which he appeared as Michael Scofield saving his older brother Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell) from execution for an imperfect crime. This role earned Miller a Golden Globe nomination.

Later, the actor played alongside Milla Jovovich in the horror film Resident Evil in 3D: Life After Death and with Karl Urban in the thriller Loft. It should also be noted that under the pseudonym Ted Folk Miller writes screenplays for films. According to his idea, for example, the psychological thriller "Vicious Games" was filmed, where the leadership invited such stars as Mia Wasikowska and Nicole Kidman.

In 2014, the actor accepted an offer from the creators of the superhero series The Flash, where he got the role of Captain Cold, the leader of a team of villains who opposes the main character Flash (Grant Gustin). The first season of the series, aired on The CW, garnered the attention of viewers and received high viewing ratings, after which the film was extended for three more seasons.

In 2016, Wentworth's filmography was replenished with work in the sequel to the superhero series "The Flash" - "Legends of Tomorrow", where the actor also reincarnated as Captain Cold. Dominic Purcell, Miller's co-star on The Escape, also starred in the film.

Over the years, Wentworth Miller's private life has been shrouded in mystery. The actor has repeatedly said that he will soon build a strong family and start a family. It was only in August 2013 that Miller decided to declare that he was gay, and was hiding his unconventional sexual orientation for fear that this would affect his career far from the best.

Wentworth came out before refusing to participate in the St. Petersburg International Film Festival. The American artist thus protested against discrimination against the gay community in Russia and the adoption of a law banning the promotion of homosexuality among minors.

According to Miller, in his youth, he even made an attempt to commit suicide due to the need to constantly dodge and lie. The actor still does not name his partners, but, according to information from social networks, Wentworth at various times met with Canadian actor Luke McFarlane, American colleague Christoffer Kusik and photographer Mark Liddell.

The main project of the last two years in his creative career for Wentworth Miller again became the series "Escape". In 2017, the sequel to the crime thriller "Escape: Continuation" started on Fox. The producers decided not to change the main cast. In the fifth season, Miller's hero, Michael Scofield, who survived the explosion, becomes a prisoner of a prison in Yemen. His beloved and brother rush to help Michael. Despite the popularity of previous seasons, the public took the new episodes coolly, and the ratings of the series dropped.

But in 2018, information appeared on Dominic Purcell's Instagram that the channel did not intend to say goodbye to the Escape series and was preparing a script for the sixth season. It is expected that the main roles will again go to Wentworth Miller, Dominic Purcell, Sarah Wayne Callies. Now representatives of the TV company are working on creating a convenient working schedule for all invited actors.
