Chiselled out of a Brad Pitt mould, Chad Michael Murray is winning hearts and fans with his roles in Gilmore Girls, Dawson's Creek and a surprise movie project?
Where did he spring up from? Chad grew up in Buffalo, New York, where he stumbled into acting as a four-year-old, performing skits in front of family members. In high school, he was a talented footballer, but ditched it for modelling and then acting.
First acting gig? 'I played a murder suspect on Diagnosis Murder.'
Family ties ... Chad's father is a single parent to his five siblings.
Pet hate? 'Drugs, definitely.' Chad is an active anti-drug campaigner, and attends awareness functions for children and teens.
His idol? 'Edward Norton. I think the greatest validation would be, at the end of the day, him patting me on the shoulder and going: 'Wow kid, you held your own.?'
His next project? The big-screen remake of Freaky Friday, starring Jamie Lee Curtis, out later this year.
