Wentworth Miller
(1972- ) Wentworth Miller is an English-born American (he retains dual citizenship) actor, model, and screenwriter who became famous thanks to his role as Michael Scofield in the TV series Prison Break. He graduated from Princeton University completing his bachelor's degree in English Literature before turned to acting.
Miller's first TV appearance was as student-turned-sea monster gauge Petronzi on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and his first starring role was as the sensitive and introverted David Scott in the mini-series Dinotopia. After appearing in a few minor television roles, he moved on to co-star in the 2003 film The Human Stain, playing the younger version of the Anthony Hopkins character, Coleman Silk. He appeared in some well known films such as Underworld or Resident Evil and also in two Mariah Carey music videos: "It's Like That" as a party guest and "We Belong Together" as her love interest.
Miller wrote a screenplay for a film called Stoker, as well as a prequel Uncle Charlie. He used the pseudonym Ted Foulke, with the objective of no interfering in the judgement of the quality of the script because of his fame.
